Any good solutions for a black tank that's not draining? 
Never had this problem before, but this is also the first time that we've been in it this long. 
Normally our trips are 2-4 days. This trip has been 14 days and won't be done for another 6-7. 
DH said it's not in the pipe that goes from the toilet down around 20 in. because he stuck his whole arm in there. (eew)
He says that black tank must be completely full and isn't draining at all. 
Any suggestions welcome - please help?

If it is clear at the top.. and you are sure it didn't drain, the valve at the outflow is either malfunctioning, or broken is my best guess.

the "correctist" idea I have would be to get a small kiddie pool, place it at the gate valve outflow, attempt to open valve, if the valve opens, and nothing comes out, send a hose up there to clear it.. Clean up as needed..
