I emailed them after seeing their ad in the fish mag I get, back in September or maybe October. Their ad (and webpage) says "Canadian and International customers - please email for a quote." I emailed them ... and never heard back, not a peep.
I might still try bugging them again at some point. It's a great idea. It just bugs me when companies don't even bother replying to emails, so I was sort of turned off by that. But ... In their defense, I haven't tried emailing them a second time yet. I'm still sort of tempted to get a water test workup done because there's just something strange going on in my tanks when it comes to SPS ... but everything that I can test for seems to be OK.

I like how they test for Boron because it is used so widely as a 'filler' for ALK.
it could really determine if the salt one uses is as good as one thought J |

I have always said that we need a service like this for our hobby. Most of us are hobbyist not chemists. I would probably use a service like this 3 to 4 times a year.

Well if anyone does hear back from them about rates for Canadian customers.. please let us know. I might email them again too. It's a great idea, just mail in your samples, they email you back the panel results...

I see an opportunity here. How about CSI AQUATICS. All we need to do is fine a lab willing to do the work.

Some people on RC have used it, but have experienced some difficulties. It seems that the original tests weren't done with saltwater in mind, they tested the water like it was freshwater. I'm not sure if this has been solved yet, but I know its a known issue.
