Black Tank flush with valve closed
Is it common for people to close the valve with the hose still running in order to prime the tank with some fresh water?

Second, I've never seen waste tanks that weren't black. So that was a new one on me.
Yup, mine is some kind of translucent white material. Same thing as the fresh water tank. So when I look down the toilet on an empty tank, I can see daylight through the tank wall. It's somewhat brown-stained, but that's it.
Our rig is nearly 30 years old. I've had it for 10. I never rinse out the tank; I just fill it full before dumping so you get a real gusher when you pull the cork. I used to put the blue "poo pellets" in the tank before a trip, but I quit using them about a year ago. We have no smell issues so I figure it's just a waste of money and unnecessary for the environment.
