Fungus will only show up IF there is water in the fuel - it needs the water to grow. Why will there ONLY be water in the aux tank but none in the OEM tank ? Why wouldn't fungus blossom in those 5 gallon cans in the bed of your truck ?
And remember that you can (and I do) run with the aux tank empty when not towing. There is no rule that says you have to fill the aux when you fill up the OEM tank.

Empty tanks are worst than full ones. The walls of empty tanks get condensation on them(inside). In boats we add a biocide to kill the bugs. The other issue is that the ULSD does not store as well as diesel of yesteryear. Chris
