One possible solution is that the expansion tank is installed on the hot water outlet line. It should be on the cold inlet side because the hot water over time breaks down the bladder within the tank. As the bladder "dissolves" it leaves black specks in the hot water which clings to bathroom/kitchen tubs, sinks, etc. that smear like eyeliner or grease.
Another possibility is to check the hot water lines connecting your pipes to the hot water heater. The inner liner of reinforced flexible rubber supply lines will deteriorate over time. As the inner liner degrades it leaves small graphite like black flakes that will come out through fixtures as hot water is run.

Your Black Moor Fish has gold specks growing on it could it be parasites?
my blackmoor fish started off with gold specks then eventually turned completely gold, as did my baby one, even though the others in the tank didnt, apparently it can be down to water temp or just genes, but they are fine, hope this helps
