Just to throw another variable in the mix, I don't use a biocide.  Maybe
I've just gotten lucky but I've never had a problem and simply keep the
tank "fresh" by keeping it low and constantly topping it up little by
little, 5 gallon can at a time through a filter funnel.  Basically my
mantra is, keep the water out and the biologics won't have a chance.

Maine Sailor did an experiment regarding the percentage of fill and the
accumulation of condensation in his tanks.  He found that level didn't make
a difference.  With that knowledge in hand I feel comfortable keeping the
bare minimum of fuel in the tanks as much as possible.

Since ULSD is the only thing available, I do believe in a lubricity
additive and have advocated in the past for a product called Opti Lube
XPD.  Awesome stuff!
