Yes and Randy addressed this in another thread. I think he said it was still fine to use but maybe not ideal anymore.

Thanks I had actually forgotten about this

Ughh...maybe in the end I should just pay the shipping for Bulk Reef Supply. Perhaps buying a year or two worth at a time will make it worth it. I think I will look into it. Just wish I had done it while the US dollar was poor.

Try contacting Univar........ they may not sell to you directly (although other people in Canada have bought from univar direct before). If not they can probably tell you who you can buy from.

You can buy Red Sea magnesium chloride from Univar. I bought a 20 of bag a few months ago. Mix with Epsom salts available at any drug store. See Reefkeeping online for recipe and addition calculator. I have been doing this for a few months now. Works well and is cheap.

Do they sell direct to consumers or do you have to be a business to order from them?

I've been a bit confused on this because some other forum threads I've heard that they can buy direct from them and others they said that they could not.

This would be perfect if they will sell to me. Going to call tomorrow morning. Looks like they have both the calcium and magnesium I am after.

I used my company name but paid cash. I do work for a chemical company though. Try calling. If no luck, pm me.

Do you remember the cost?

PM me if you prefer.

I think I paid about $2/kg for the calcium and the magnesium. Many times cheaper than any liquid solution. The Epsom salts are about the same.
