Problems? Using RV hose to complete water changes.

Hello, Planning my first tank to the last detail. I'm planning on adding a PVC hose bibb to the tank to drain 20-30 gallons out for water changes and then using the same hose to pump fresh water back into the tank. The hose is drinking water safe, so I figure there wont be any crazy problems there. The question: If I let the hose sit (wet inside) for weeks could it grow something scary that could harm the tank that wouldn't be flushed out by the 20-30 gallons being drained? Any and all thoughts are appreciated!
 
It could grow mold. Whether that will hurt the tank I don't know, sounds like something to avoid.
