Is there some sort of cleaner or bleach water mixture that we can put in the tank to kill what ever is growing down there? Any chemists here????? Al + Cl = _________ Do yourself a favor. Toss the aluminum tanks and replace with 316L. ANd DONT "shock treat" your alumunium tank with clorine bleach. Do yourself a much bigger favor. With used boats, if ever you can, by hook or crook, muster up all your wisdom, all your courage, and don't ever turn a tiny, inexpensive job into a giant, expensive job unless you have a very good reason. There will be more than enough of those to go around. So unless Bob here give us a very good reason not to use the well accepted bleach method, ignore him. Stephen |
