Hydrogen peroxide

I have read almost every post on this site (which I love, by the way). I am totally new to the whole AP thing, but I have not seen a single post on this topic. I salvaged two IBCs that previously held peroxide (H202), which is used in poultry processing to combat salmonela. I researched and discovered peroxide is also used in commercial fisheries to fight algae and fungus infections. I did clean out the IBCs, but figured that any leaching from the plastic would be nothing but beneficial.

Does anyone have any input? According to what I remember from college chemistry, the only bi-products of H202 are hydrogen and water. How could that be bad?

Have there been discussions about actually adding hydrogen peroxide to the FTs?
