Cheap, Good Quality Calcium Chloride
Randy at RC has just completed a article comparing Dow Flake Calcium Chloride 77-80% and several commercial reef products:
http://www.advancedaquarist.com/issues/mar2004/chem.htm The 12 page thread on the subject is here: http://reefcentral.com/forums/showth...5&pagenumber=1 Locally, it is available throught Univar Canada under a slightly different name, Calcium Chloride 77%. Here is their MSDS page on the product: http://msds.univarcanada.com/wercswv...A00%3A00%27%7D This product is $17 per 20kg, though I don't know if shipping charges are included. Even if there are extra shipping charges, who cares? The product is useful and really freaking cheap! I would like to order a bag for myself and am wondering who else out there would like to do the same. There is one problem in ordering the product. Univar will not sell to individuals, only to companies. Is there someone in Edmonton who has a company who could supply a purchase order and payment for our order? BTW, I have contact numbers in both Calgary and Edmonton. There must also be an office in Vancouver. Let's get some of this stuff for even happier and cheaper reefing |

Jesse,
I can't believe that you and I are the only ones interested. Maybe everybody else has money to burn on their reefs |

Two words: calcium reactor.

From the analysis it looks like the calcium is just as pure as the Kent 2 part calcium mixture and its suggesting that you could use it in place of the additives so it doesnt really mean its a one time measure.
Also I m interested in orderin some too.

Just print any company name on a buisness card (from your computer) and go into the company and say you want to set up a cash account. Should be able to order then.
