I believe that the preferred mixture is one ounce of hydrogen peroxide for each ten gallons of fresh water in the tank...

If you use you tank often, (every couple weeks) Just drain and refill with chlorinated house water. Annually or if the tank has set for awhile do a complete sanitize.
RV Tech Library - Sanitizing Your Fresh Water System

FWIW that site has a lot of RV info.

I use a product called Taste Pure Drinking Water Freshener from Camco every time I fill the fresher water tank. I've used it for years and tt seems to do the trick.

All this stuff is is expensive bleach. Just get some plain household bleach and use the same way.
