I would think the peroxide would only be a temporary solution. Changing the anode is probably what needs to be done. They even have segmented ones that are supposed to make changing in attic a little easier.
When I was having the issue, it was coming from one of the two 50gal electric tanks in my attic (both >20 yrs old). Bit the bullet and went to a tankless gas. Not solely due to the anode, but was definitely worth it.

This is for a rental unit so I’ll have to stick with a 40 gal electric. The anode rod was hiding under almost 4 inches of foam. Is there a socket that fits that deep into the water heater?
