Not sure about that one specifically, but I never did for any of the Kodak fixers. Developers yes, light and with as little air as possible.

I keep mine in transparent bottle and still useable after 5-6 uses. I just mix new after that.

No. Simply no need to.

Really? I know about little air, to minimize oxidation, but light tight? Kodak sells HC110 concentrate in a translucent bottle, and I have never used an opaque bottle for developer. Does it undergo some sort of photochemical degradation?

All my chemicals are in clear bottles. I just keep them in the closet.
