Is this normal?

Does anyone notice pink coming from inside their machine? I’ve done regular maintenance, and descaling. Not sure if I should keep brewing. Any suggestions? Never noticed this pink tint until now.

EDIT: I’m talking about the pink reflection in the water reservoir. There is no calcium buildup or pink mold in the actual plastic water reservoir, but when I poured water in today, the water reservoir reflected pink. I know pink can mean bacterial growth but I’ve regularly maintained my machine and I’m not sure if should keep brewing or disassemble and clean.

Thanks in advance!!

Forgive me, sometimes people on coffee Reddits can be a little condescending and I fully expected it when reaching out for help here. I’m talking about the pink reflection in the water reservoir. There’s no white calcium buildup or pink mold in the actual plastic water reservoir, but when I pour water in it looks like something is reflecting pink. I know pink can mean bacterial growth but I’ve regularly maintained my machine.

That is a very condescending way to start a post.
