Yes they are from the US but you can find places here and people on the board that will sell you the exact same chemicals for cheaper and you still follow they're calculator.

The crystalline dihydrate calcium chloride is something I've never seen locally. They say its pharmaceutical grade. It mixes clearer then any other calcium chloride I've used. Most locals try splitting up bags of ice melt.

I doubt the stuff available locally is the same grade. BRS a while back also upgraded grades. My jugs of Ca, Alk, and Mg appear to be jugs of clean water. From talking to other reefers a lot of the other bulk stuff is not like this. Not saying that equates to quality but with my small tank I had no problem paying a little bit extra for BRS. It's apparent that my one batch is going to last longer than a year.

I use the BRS products. They're great! I understand Oceanic Corals is carrying it now.
