There's brown orange slime like that in one of the rivers north of
here a ways. It's not very wide spread, forming near or at the edge of
the water where there's runoff. Maybe it's an algae promoted by excess
nutrients or something? I don't actually know, just thought the info
of where I'd observed it might help someone else...

I like taking rocks with it as there's always some little critters for my darters hiding in the moss. Anyone familiar with the orange brown slime, what is that stuff and what promotes it?
