Build up of waste sounds better :) 6 goldfish and i think he may overfeed..

And now that i think about it, there was no brown slime in my 10 gallon. It was just SUPER slimey to the touch.

Brown slime is diatom growth. In my experience, tanks go through a phase where this stuff grows like crazy, even if you keep your water pristine. You can wipe it off everything, and it grows back overnight. Then it tends to disappear suddenly. Not sure why.

Algae could not have built up over a 3 day period with no sun. And yes the cartridge does have carbon in it. Thanks anyway.

Has anyone seen a cartridge that doesnt have carbon in it? Cause i haven't...
