[geno7]

Will you guys be stocking the brightwell salt and if so when?

 

[Jeremy B.]

Hi Geno,

We have the salt on the way. We should hopefully have it within the next week. I will post back here as soon as it's in stock.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Any info about the salt?

 

[Jeremy B.]

I should be getting the info on the salt emailed over to me today or tomorrow. As soon as I receive it I will post it here.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Bromide 67 67
Strontium 7.625 7.625
Boron 4.5 4.5
Fluoride 1.3 1.3
Alkalinity ~7.5dkh
pH 8.30

Full production of the salt is starting up next week, and we should have our first shipment in two weeks or less.

Thanks,

I don't think anyone could have come any closer to NSW...... Brightwell nailed it.....

 

[Buganddoug]

Jeremy do you know of the price?

 

[Jeremy B.]

I believe it will retail for $54.99 for a 150gal mix. That is not a definite price yet, but I believe it's very close.

 

[Tank2379]

Is it available yet?

 

[Jeremy B.]

We are still waiting. We should have it by the end of this week hopefully barring any delays at Brightwell. We do have it online now if you're interested in pre-ordering...

I don't buy you numbers at all and say they are bogus and nosense. Show me a data sheet from a lab. You are saying your salt for example tested to a...........

Strontium @ 7.625 ppm and a NSW was the same @ 7.625. And every parmeter you give is exactly the same as that NSW sample. Your Sr is within 1/1,000 of a ppm of the Sr in NSW ?

:rollface: :rollface:

That is nosense and not even worthy of a comment.


And where did you get those NSW so, called levels from ?

 

[Jeremy B.]

I would recommend contacting Brightwell with their posted numbers. You can reach Chris directly at 570-799-5474.

Thanks,
Jeremy

 

[Boomer]

I do not need to contact anybody about those numbers that is your job. They are wrong.........period

And no Jer I'm not picking on you guys, as I think you guys are a good bunch.

 

[noahm]

I would have to say, after reading their pitch, that their numbers are probably accurate. It is the variability in NSW data that allows them to match NSW to their #s rather than the other way around. That is my guess, but it allows them to use hard data to back up their claims. Not dishonest at all, but someone else could easily find NSW data that is off of their #'s +/- a bit.

And I can fly to Mars to by flapping my arms :lol: If you want to believe in marketing hype then have at .

I forgot to add, that Chris Brightwell does not even know thne differnce between speiciic graivtry and density

specific gravity of 1.025 g/cm3

That is density and not Sg. Sg has no unit value. ie., 1.025 not 1.025 g/cm3. Sg DOES NOT = D. Seawater at 25C with that Density is 37.3 ppt and NSW is 35 ppt. A D = 1.025 g/cm3 = 1.028 Sg. So, what is it really on the bottle D or Sg

 

[luther1200]

I find that a bit of a stretch myself.

Some folks don't know the difference between a bottle and a bucket. Last time I purchased salt it arrived in a bucket not a bottle. You should check your spelling as well.

Please add some positives to the conversation and leave off the negative. It is a product you have not tested or used. This is not a bash Brightwell forum. Until someone officially test the salt to see the numbers, we have to assume the numbers are correct. The brightwell products that I have used have been wonderful and I'm sure the salt is of equal quality.

Look Who cares as long as it turns out to be the best salt we can buy.
