No, rice doesnt go soft.
Bleach and rice slowly gets rid of all that crap in the tank that must be from rubber hoses, engine block etc..

Got hoses from Rockauto because they were cheap and my old ones were looking a little soft but you don't have to change them if you think yours are OK.

I refilled the coolant via the top hose into the radiator and engine. Then replaced hose and filled up remainder into coolant tank while squeezing top hose.

Cheers
