Are you sure only liquid waste is being drained? It is very possible that the solids have broken down enough that what appears to be only liquid is actually everything liquified. Like was said, be sure to run plenty of water each flush, and yes, draining the black tank can be a nuisance, but that is part of the deal, and flushing the black tank just keeps things working. There are some very good tank additives that can increase the speed the waste breaks down, and we use TankTechsRx, but there are others that others swear by.
