look into the tubes to see if algae is growing which needs to be cleaned out.also why not do the red coolant as well?is the picture dim as in lack of contrast or dark as in lack of brightness?

if you take the front off then you can look down into the tubes .they should be clear not murky.if the picture has got worse slowly over time it maybe the tubes are failing,but it would be best to get this confirmed by a local tech.
