Thanks for the great deal, Chivan! I can't wait to mix up my first batch!

Remember to use the calculator on the chemistry section, and go slow at first.

[dja1980]

Thanks for the tip... I will be sure to do that!

[kimha]

I thought you're working today... Still have time to surf ReefCentral.....

[dja1980]

True... it doesn't help that I stare at a computer all day long and Outlook alerts me the minute there's a new post... kills productivity!!!

It shows that you're a talented multi-tasker with the right priority set

Kimha,

I also need a bag..do you have any left?

--Bucky

[kimha]

Sure Bucky. 1 bag $10 buck. 3 bags $20. Winter is coming, may as well use the other 2 bags to de-ice your door steps

[Buckyez]

thanks..I only need 1 bag. I'll PM you.

Another source for those looking to purchase online (includes shipping to Naperville, IL - Don't forget to change the shipping option to "UPS Ground Residential"):

Dowflake 50lb $33.10 ($.66/lb. – mainstreetseedandsupply.com)

Peladow 50lb $36.10 ($.72/lb. – mainstreetseedandsupply.com)

Peladow is more pure than the flake. It takes less product to achieve the same result. I belive the flake is 77 percent and the peladow is 93% pure, your adding less junk and more calcium.

Good point, Kevin. And, for those looking for Peladow, Kevin informed me that he has a pallet of 50lb bags available that he is willing to ship. Just PM him if you're interested.

Hey, you guys that are looking at calcium reactors, did you happen to see the Thread Of The Month back in July? I was sold on going the calcium reactor route too, but after reading that thread, it sounds like setting up an automatic dosing system for 2 part is the way to go.
