Should I drain my tank before filling it with Startron? I'd hate to drain the tank unless I really have to. If I have to drain it what is the best way?

I believe she is full of it or perhaps just misinformed.
Startron will prevent new growth as well as breakdown existing growth so that it can be filtered or burned. No need to drain the tank.
