I watched the same guy debunk the popular theory of ice cubes to clean the tank, he's pretty good, thanks Herk

Awesome video. I think the bigger floaters would have dissolved a bit better if there was black water treatment soaking for awhile. Tornado is now ordered.

Just remember that it is a holding tank and not a septic system. It will take a LONG time to break down large dense "items". A good turbo flusher and lots of water are what is needed to get the solids moving out the dump mast.

Great video. I use the tank rinser that came with the unit. I then fill the toilet as much as possible and flush it 3 times with the valve open to really dislodge anything else and it really cleans out the tank.
