Response to Brown tint to Tri-X negatives

Sounds as if you got off lucky. Usually, bad developer gives thin, low-contrast negs, while spent fixer imparts a blotchy cloudiness, which can be cleared by refixing in fresh fix. Did you use a developer that in the past has not produced brown Tri-X negs? If so, I'd dump that batch of developer. As for what you have in hand, you might try refixing a roll or strip to see whether the color goes away. Otherwise, print and see how you go.
