Hi anyone used Calcium chloride from Cleartech Industries before? I gave them a call they have 77% up to 94% they have a distribution here at lower mainland.

The 94% looks promising comes to around $50 for a 20kg bag

Yea pool place carries the 77% but sells it $50/bag. I have to check other pool places for prices.

But if you go directly to supplier they sell the 77 much cheaper. while inquiring sales told me there's a 94% as well.

How is it working it out for your reef?

Since there is no way to know what the other 6% is, I don't know if it can create a negative effect for our reef in long term.

Just looking right now if anyone has used this particular brand on their and how's the result. They sell to general public anyways.

no worries, Yea that's the thing it's hard to tell if it's safe. The old Dowflake amd the Prestone drive clear. people have tested it and it works even the new dow one with bromine no early adverse effect. Just not sure about long term
