Brown Water?
I recently started giving my infant baths in the tub, and found that the drain stop didn't work. As a stop gap measure, I've been placing a washcloth or towel over the drain, then filling the bath. After the bath has drained, the water leaves a brown circle on the cloth over the (circular) drain. Anyone know what it is, and whether its problematic?

It's probably o.k. & just means that the water is a little turbid from nearby construction that's shaking the pipes. Esp. since there's so little you don't see it except in a strainer.

Noticed the same thing. It's iron/sediment. The washcloth is acting like a filter.

or it could be goo that's on/in the drain itself, not in the water.

Imby is right.It might be the Iron/sediments of the water.But you should take it easy ,beacause if you filter the plain water with cloth you can see that some spots leaves on the cloth.Might be the hole of the drain is cause of spot.
