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.

Good, please post the result of the solutions once you get it. Hopefully it's a high quality product.

+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.

Just a note. The free shipping over $175 at brs does not apply to canadians.

If these are as high quality as brs I am very interested but I'd need some hard proof as the brs stuff is incredible and I believe part of my success so far.

Don't feel bad, I thought that I qualified a few times before I finally clued in!

+1 for the quality and price. Will be interested and following this!

Fantastic news. I'll be following the results closely. Much rather drive and pickup than give BRS my first-born to ship the stuff.
