<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Hi Elliot</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I understand this problem is caused by chlorine in the
"city water" reacting with the inside of the tank. The resulting white gunk can
also clog up the filter on your Jabsco pump. I've purchased a "Dockside
Prefilter" from General Ecology that I'm told will eliminate the chlorine from
the city water when filling my water tank and the problem will go away. We're
hauled out for the winter on the Great Lakes, so I won't know how it works until
next season</FONT></DIV>

Treatment</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal>I have discovered that our 50 gallon fresh water tank had
developed some kind of thin membrane growth which breaks up and floats out of
the deck filling when we refill the tank. It is clogging our fresh water
pump filter with a thin brownish film. Whatever it is, I would like to
clear it up and thought about adding Clorox to the tank and letting it sit for
a day or two before flushing. Has anyone experienced a similar problem
and how was it treated? Thanks in advance for any advise. Elliot Kocen,
Canvasback, NT 26-150, Solomons, MD.<o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
