Yep. Go to the health food shop and get some coloidal silver. drop it in and then fill the tank. Drain after 24 hours and it will be bacteria and algae free.

make sure you remove the Coloidal Silver from the tank as it can be harmful in large doses or continued use.
'Reviews of the scientific literature on colloidal silver products have concluded that:
Silver has no known function in the body
Silver is not an essential mineral supplement or a cure-all and should not be promoted as such
Claims that there can be a "deficiency" of silver in the body and that such a deficiency can lead to disease are unfounded
Claims made about the effectiveness of colloidal silver products for numerous diseases are unsupported scientifically
Colloidal silver products can have serious side effects
Laboratory analysis has shown that the amounts of silver in supplements vary greatly, which can pose risks to the consumer.
Side Effects and Risks
Animal studies have shown that silver builds up in the tissues of the body. In humans, buildup of silver from colloidal silver can lead to a side effect called argyria, which causes a bluish-gray discoloration of the skin, other organs, deep tissues, nails, and gums. Argyria is permanent and cannot be treated or reversed. Other side effects from using colloidal silver products may include neurologic problems (such as seizures), kidney damage, stomach distress, headaches, fatigue, and skin irritation. Colloidal silver may interfere with the body's absorption of some drugs, such as penacillamine, quinolones, tetracyclines, and thyroxine.
Federal Regulation
...The FDA issued a ruling in 1999 that no products containing colloidal silver are generally recognized as safe and effective. In addition, the FDA and the FTC have sent warning letters to the operators of many Web sites that market colloidal silver with drug-like claims (i.e., claims that their products diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease)."

Spot on Ghost. That is why I said drain the tank after 24 hours. All you want the silver to do is kill the bacteria and algae that may have built up inside it.
Even if you dumped a bottle of colloidal silver in the water tank and didn't train it you would end up with .054mg of silver per litre in it and you can ingest that much silver from silver cutlery.
