Brown Slime Algae or Root Rot?

Hi Guys,

I have been having an issue with my roots that I cant seem to wrap my head around and need some advice.

I have been growing DWC for the last few months and seem to have this issue with my roots. I know at first glance it looks exactly like root rot but the thing is that I have no issue with plant growth. The plants are healthy and that is what I cant understand.

The issue arises straight after a Rez change and then seems to go away after about a week or so. Every Rez change I soak the roots in a 3% H202 solution @ 6ml to 1L for at least 3 hours and I am adding beneficial microbes into the rez, called Biodyne.

The room temperature varies from 66-71f. I am doing 20litre containers with a pump that is pushing out 150litre/hour of air into each container.

I have had no issues with the plants whatsoever and the only thing that seems to happen is this discoloration after each change. The roots start growing healthily after a few days so I really don't know what is happening so please any help would be great.

Here is a link to the products I am using with the recommended dosages.
