I keep a couple of the tablets around in case the bladder has visible growth(its college, stuff happens) but other than that I use it enough to keep it clean and only use water in it.

There should have been a small folded sheet that has washing instructions with the Camelbak, which is quite a handy reference. Camelbak suggests buying their "cleansing tablets" and using their bladder and tube brush kit. Available for around twenty dollars and comes with two tablets. There was a time before Camelbak had their magic cleansing tablets, and thus most people I know don't opt for that option. If you follow the instructions on this page: http://www.camelbak.com/camelbak-101/cleaning-and-maintenance.aspx and use their "emergency instructions," which is to use a tablespoon of bleach, you can save yourself a lot of money. I'm not aware of many microbes that bleach won't kill. Like they say, be sure to rinse thoroughly and run clean water through the tube and bite valve as well. Hope that helps!
