Smelly water
Last summer we purchased a new Rockwood 8315 BSS travel trailer. As I always do when I de-winterize, I sanitized the fresh tank and lines with bleach water. For some reason, every time we have camped ...

Went through the bleach thing again and it seems to be ok so far.
Wondering if there is a formula for adding a tiny bit of bleach with each fill of the fresh water tank? Simular to maybe city water?

Sure thing, something like a capful or so taste, added to a mostly empty tank and then fill with water.
Camco sells a food grade sodium hypochlorite solution to keep your tank fresh. It's just bleach without any perfume, dye or other nonsense added. The instructions indicate 1 oz of treatment per 20 gallons. I've been happy with 1/2oz, and have only used it a few times so far, where the water will be sitting in the fresh tank for a week or more between outings.
