black water tank treatments
Hello, I am wondering how many of you use some sort of chemicals in your black tank? Do you think it helps with breakdown of stuff in tank? I am NOT looking for TP suggestions or anything like that ...

Don't you need some sort of enzymes to break down the waste and toilet paper? Sort of the same principle as to why you put rid x in your septic tank at home.
nope. first most any toilet paper will disinegrate by itself in water. Not even a need for "RV" toilet paper IMHO. We've used Costco TP in the house and trailer for over a decade, never an issue. I have a short clear section on the macerator (dump at home) and I've never seen a piece of toilet paper enter the macerator that was more than maybe a few inches square. poof it's gone.
Next, you will be flushing all the stuff out, you don't need to turn it into something else. The waste will come out with the other fluids, especially if you have a inlet for a tank rinser.
