reviving this thread.
Anyone know where I can get some Thorite these days?

 

[cerreta]

How much do you need? I think I may still have a 7 pound bag left over. In volume that is about 3/4 gallon of dry thorite

That will work. Just want to cement some rock that I have together.
This stuff can be put back in the tank right away after drying correct?

Ed, I still have some. I think it is a ten pund bag.

Henry, yes. The materal is basic in nature and will raise pH in small tanks, but it should not be a problem with tanks over 120 gallons. Not sure how long this lasts for. I did some inital testing in small volumes, but only to determine that it raises pH. I did nto continue testing after that.
