Generic rowa phos purchase
Do any DRC members want to go in on a purchase of some generic Rowa Phos with me, I just spoke to kendalls from R/C, he is willing to sell (and deliver to the next meeting) a 36lb tub of generic rowa for $350 (less than $10 per pound is an incredible price, one lb = roughly 455 grams), this product is the identical substance in Rowa Phos, , he also has a super nice collection of huge sps frags for sale at very reasonable prices (he deals in corals). LMK if anyone is interested >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jim K

Put me in too, I was going to get some from him anyway, but just getting it at the meeting sounds much simpler.

Jim I have an interest in those SPS coral frags. Is there a link to see what he has availible? I would have been all over the generic Rowa purchase but I just bought a tub of the real deal two months ago. This stuff lasts a really long time in the aquarium. I think I have over 2 years worth of it already.

have you guys had any negative affects on your corals?, there is some talk in the sps forum of people using too much of this stuff in low-nutrient aquariums and that it works too well, removing all phos guard before in a bag in my sump - now I converted one of of the phosphate and causing bleaching - not being alarmist, I just started running rowa on my tank this week (I was using those "tap water purifiers" to a carbon and rowa phos filter using a bunch of filter floss inbetween,....) but I think I'm safe b/c I have such a slow flow rate through it and with a heavy fish load, I have a pretty constant supply of phosphates

Here is Kendalls website for those sps corals, he deals through distributors but will sell direct to DRC members. http://www.coraldirect.com/

Its a great deal even Phosban is about $14 for 150 grams, this is over three times the Iron oxide(455 grams) for $10 (thats less than 25% of the price of phosban, not to menton the price of Rowa), My reactor holds over 1 Lb so I am stocking up.

I just received a 3Lb sample of this generic RowaPhos from Kendall’s, it appears to be an identical to the Rowaphos just as Kendall had promised (it is a wet media exactly like Rowa), if you are interested in running a RowaPhos type product, you will not find it for this price anywhere.>>>>>>>>>>>Jim K

Please put me in for 1 lbs.
I have a number of new never been used reactors from small to jombo size for $25 -$45 or best offer. I will post pictures of these reactors as soon as I could find the battery charger for my digital camera. If you have corals soft, hard,sps we could trade. Thanks |

I just spoke to Kendall, He thought our meeting was next monday and there is a seven day lead time on the Generic rowa, I placed the order anyway for next monday, I can either bring it to the following meeting or you can pick it up from me if you need it before that, Kendall had wanted to come to our meeting anyway to discuss other possible discount DRC purchases of corals.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Jim K

in my last I mentioned I am in for 1 lb but forgot to ask how, where and when for me to pick up. Could anyone clue me in.
Since it is such a good deal @$10/lb I would like 2 lbs intestead of 1 lb. I do have a numbers of new reactors and I could bring the reactors meeting place if any one interest in them. |

Just for the heck of it I weighed a 250ml container of genuine rowa phos, 250ml=1/2lb, the price sticker on the 250ml box was $29.99, thats just about $60 per pound, the generic rowa ($10 per pound) is one sixth of the price.
