Agreed, Billy!

Also, implanting really good microbe enhancers into tanks after every pump-out is important... and, if time lingers on, don't be afraid to add more enhancers between evacuations for good measure. Additionally - it is well worth the extra bucks to get tanks and feed lines made of the very best materials and installed having best clamps and in the best types of interactive elevations. There can be nothing much worse than a holding tank arangement that begins to fail - or God Forbid! - fails completely into bilge - - YUCKKKK!
