Cleaning head tanks

Recently I saw a recommendation to periodically add 1/2 cup of liquid detergent to the head tank to clean it .Does anyone really do this? Does it work?  I can tell that my tank needs cleaning as I can shine  a flashlight  through the fiberglass tank and I see "stuff" clinging to the sides.  I'd appreciate hearing others experience. Thanks, Joe
