You need a new tank. Sounds like your bladder is ruptured and you are
getting the rust from the metal part of the tank.


It doesn't seem to be rust. *It is slick and breaks apart easily.
Also, even with the water out, the bladder holds its air pressure, so
there can't be a large hole in the diaphragm.

knocked off the bladder when you inflated it?
