I do use a macerator so that the flow into the tank is no where like the flow from a stinky slinky. I also do not use any chemicals except for laundry soap.
We've been doing this for the past 15 years and have not experience any problem. We only had the septic tank pumped because we had a blockage on the main line from the house which didn't affect dumping the mh tanks into the clean out right next to the tank. Figured while we had the line dug up and replaced, might as well and have the tank pumped.
