You wont find any in Calgary Sean.
I looked.......Lots....
You have to make a trip down to the US to get some. That's what I did durring the summer.

You can go to bigals or any other fish store and pay $25.00 for a 1lb container :roll: :lol:

pickling lime is Kalkwasser (aka kalk) like the they sell at the lfs...do a search here or reefcentral for either term and you will get TONNES of info, i have been reading it all over in the past couple of weeks....anyways i *may* be able to get a source for some, my mom works in one of the labs at u of c (actually the one that discovered that cancer treatment) and she might be able to order or get some (calcium hydroxide)...but she is in africa right now for 3 weeks so we'll just have to wait untill then.
