help wit finding media

[brittlestar08]

No one seems to know where to find this stuff so I figured the experts of tis sight must know. So here it goes...

I'm looking for rechargable color changing silica media for use in an air dryer which will be connected to an ozone generator. I know I have issues ...

I can't seem to be able to find a single source that sells the stuff. anyone know where I can get it? i need like 1/2 gallon container of it.

thanks in advance for your help.

Fisher Scientific or Hach are two choices we always used in the lab.

well thanks for the info... however, the application is for my reef and I have no idea of the diff. in these. All I know is that I want rechargable silica beads not gel. and I sertainly don't want or need to spend $350-700 on a pail of it. any idea where to get some for use with ozinators? thanks
