Sanitizing Freshwater Tank

Remember to hold the ends higher than the hose or your Clorox will spill out of the hose.

Always remember that you are dealing with bleach. I always think I'm "smarter" and "better" than the process. I have a little wardrobe corner with splotched t shirts and jeans (2 new pair) because my assessments of what's going to happen is wrong. I just have to remember to find those "soiled" garments before I go at it....and I just can't seem to.

Just ordered a 3 foot 5/8 hose from amazon. With a small funnel, I'll try and avoid the white stains!


Thanks for the suggestions.
