Mag Chloride LOVES Water
 
So, go to mix up a batch of SW for a W/C Open my container of Mag Chloride I havent used in like a year. What do I find? It's full of WATER!!!! The MC Is a slush! Guess it's been pulling the moisture outa the air. Was just in one of those clear plastic storage bins you find at Home Hardware Etc.

Pre diluted HAHAHA Gotta love it!

I have a bag of it under my refugium stand. Dug it out other day and seen the same thing. Thought I may have had a leak at first.

LOL. yeah the bags I got shipped to me arrived as slurrys (slurries?). I think as soon as they hit the wetcoast here they just sucked up all the dampness in the air. They were all double bagged and in a closed up bucket as well. Crazy.
