Every electronic component is shipped with smoke stored deep inside.... only a real genius can find a way to set it free.

try to get the pharmacetical grade stuff - not food grade. I don't believe its that much more expensive and its less likely to contain some unwanted impurities.

I would be interested. The shipping from BRS is really high and it would be great to get this stuff locally.

Very interested depending on purity. If it mixes as clear water I can use 100lb of each. This is important as I 've used bulk chems from various places/people, none have mixed as clear as BRS chems. I still have BRS chems from two years ago, and once mixed you couldn't even distinguish it from water. I assume it's pharmacutical grade. Can you let us know once you get some sample mixes.

Any updates? Were you able to obtain the pharmacutical grades? What does it look like after mixing with water?

Yes i will have a sample of all the chemicals by next Tuesday.
Its taking a little longer than i thought because we are trying to work out a price that is feasible for everyone.
And wanting sample shipped is not easy.
hopefully i will have the product by bulk and prepakaged to tend to everyone's needs.
It is going to be pharmaceutical grades.

And i am trying to get some aragonite sand that is between 0.6 and 1.6mm in size. As this is the best size of grain to use in a low to high water flow saltwater reef tanks.More on the sand next week.

+1 on the clear mixing I just got my first batch of BRS recipe 1 last week & even the Mg was crystal clear with no residual in the bottom after 24hrs. Shipping was expensive though as I didn't get over the free shipping limit, so a local supplier would be great. Now that I seem to have my dosing dialed I wish I had bought more.

I would be interested in this... Purity, Price and any recipes for mixing if required.

I will follow to see what happens here.
