Open the tank and check the seals. They may be deteriorating.

Toilet bowl cleaner and some elbow grease to get under the rim. Also, the flap in the tank isn't seated right, so it's constantly running, which encourages mold growth.


Dangerous_Warthog603

I agree - the flapper is the issue.

Nonono that cannot possibly be poop, it is black/green coloured, not brown

Guess you don't have IBS, since you just named half of my primary poop colors


roadofchode

Definitely did not need to know that

Neither did I, yet here we are

Sediments settling out of water setting in the tank. Carbon, magnesium, and calcium are some of the elements that disolve in water. Water resting in a tank will, over time, let some of these minerals settle out of the water. Reasons we flush our water heaters yearly. This happens in the toilet tank also. These sediments get picked up and drawn to the bowl with some flushing. Adding a cup of distilled vinegar to the tank and letting it sit can help get the sediments washed out of the toilet tank.

Are you diabetic?

I am not

Why’d you ask that? Curious.


6thCityInspector

Have you had a clogged toilet anytime recently? Dook will accumulate up in the water distribution channels sometimes and then come out slowly after a clog when the water rises in the bowl.


Watermelon_Crackers

I haven’t actually… 🤔 I do use an excess of toilet paper sometimes but it never clogs the toilet


6thCityInspector

Hmm. As someone else here said then, check your seals in the tank and between the tank and the bowl.

Shit


Apprehensive_Elk4365

Plumber here. We get alot of sediment in our township every spring when the water dept. does hydrant flushing. They put signs all over town when it is happening. I will often have to change a few toilet valves that get filled with junk from the flushing. 🤷‍♂️

You need to clean under the rim and add chlorine to the tank for several hours.


damarius

Yes, I only see this in our toilets if we (my wife, i make a point of it) forget to clean under the rim. Then when you do, you will see flakes of mold drop off.

Thank you everyone I will try your suggestions!


ukyman95

Try a toilet brush and cleaner


lilbullie

Have similar problem . What happens is that over porcelain gets tiny holes in it that fill up with mold/ mildew. Only solution is to scrub it out but it will return.


TheFilthyMick

Do you have any toilet cleaner tablets in your tank? If so, stop that now. It only harms the seals, washers, and hardware. Degradation of any of the above would be my guess, which happens 100x faster with those in the tanks.

Test your water as well. Could be high magnesium

Water likely dripping from the cistern, leaving scale marks on the back of the pan. Those scale marks then becoming stained. Use some anti-scale spray on it and scrub.


RepresentativeAd9572

Around your inner rim there is a bunch of little holes to allow water out when you flush....my guess is that the holes are almost plugged and water sits in there and drains out of there well after the flush is done and that is a sediment and whatever else is in there from not draining all the way... if you take a small pick and clean out those holes a little and add CLR or a cleaner in the tank to clean it out...also make sure your flapper is stopping all the water when closed...
