Alk? Have you done anything differently? What's the source of these bubbles, sorry I will re read your post to see if these were answered. I don't really know, Hopefully someone with more experience can add some suggestions. Does your tank have a sump and the pump was clogged on the return? Or are you running a canister filter and it was clogged? If your canister was clogged it might have crashed the tank when you un clogged it sending all the deterious it had previously filtered into your tank causing a crash and spike in Nitrates, Phos and whatever else? Which might have returned to normal after the water changes and your filter working properly. However I would suggest you remove the dead snails from the tank to not cause any spikes due to them decaying, as for the algae sounds like diatoms if its brown and growing on the glass.

The filter got clogged that allows water in the second chamber in the back of the biocube. Maybe it being clogged caused a bunch of crap from the bioballs in the second chamber to come out?
I read somewhere I should remove the balls which I might do. It looks pretty dirty in there the few times i have cleaned back there. I saw a media tray you can buy that you can add stuff to that is better.

I agree, Remove the Bioballs - They are just a ticking time bomb, without proper cleaning and upkeep they are a Factory of Bad Stuff.
