Except for draining and winterizing the water system on our motorhome in preparation for winter, we never drain either the water heater or the fresh water tank. It sometimes sets for 90 days or more, and we have never had a problem with any kind of growth in either tank. I believe absence of light may have something to do with no growth. At any rate, when I lived in California, we went for months on end sometime without draining tanks even in winter, with no problems.
