Hello,

Please let me know if you will be able to pick up your Ca/Mg at the next meeting. Please also let me know if someone will be picking them up for you.

Thanks
Minh

Hey all, I will be heading to Sierra Chems to pick up a bunch of stuff I need from them tomorrow (Wed, July 18). I can easily bring my truck if you need this picked up still. Just let me know!

 

[Reefugee]

Mike - I have already picked up all the items. Thanks for the offer though.

 

[MrMikeB]

No prob... just thought I put it out there just in case. If you all missed out of the great group buy Minh put together, I typically have all this stuff (CaCl2, MgCl2, MgSO4, Na2CO3, Ca(OH)2, Carbon) laying around in large qtys and can hook you up.

 

[Brian Prestwood]

Hey Minh

Thanks for the CaCl2 group buy. We're lucky you stuck around.

 

[kdblove_99]

Mike,

I have asked you before. But, can you get Granular Ferric Oxide (GFO) Phosphate Remover in bulk?

 

[MrMikeB]

I must have missed that original question - Did you ask in PM? To answer your question though - I have good lines on the following:

MgCl2 - Magnesium Chrloride
MgSO4 - Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom Salts)
CaCl2 - Calcium Chrloride (Dow Flake)
Ca(OH)2 - Mississipi Lime Calcium Hydroxide (aka Kalkwasser)
Na2CO3 - Soda Ash (Alkalinity)
Fe2O3 - GFO aka Phosban (this was not easy to find or get established with these folks)
Carbon - Hydrodarco 3000 (Ooo... one of the best lignite based carbon out there)

All in all, I cannot think of anything else we dose with where bulk qty makes sense - save salt, and personally I think you would be crazy if you try to mix that up yourself. BTW this all high grade stuff, no weird silicates or anything - bought it specifically for reefin' craziness.

I typically have a couple hundred lbs of each at any given time for my research projects and do not mind selling some off to fellow reefers, so if you did not make the GB, don't worry - just come on over to my place and I can hook you up. I can easily honor the GB price to keep it simple. The exception to this is GFO - I have not pulled the trigger on that order (yet), simply because I do not like the idea of having 500 lbs of rust taking up my shop space, and buying in smaller qtys errodes my savings - damn volume marketing!

Whyda think I needed all those buckets?

 

[Justin74]

GFO has been the one that's elluded us for a while. I contacted the people who make it, but he wouldnt get back to me or Minh:mad2: So if you have your foot in the door, by all means let us know when we can exploit it!

Mike,

Yeah i think it was via PM before.

But would love to buy or if we could do some kind of group buy for some, that would be great also.
