I think it was confirmed it's not ROX. I'm not sure why it can be marketed as such.

ROX as far as this hobby has known thus far has been extruded carbon and this is also granular. When anyone says ROX they're referring to this specific carbon carried by BRS. I'd love for someone to source it on this side of the border...

Interesting. I do not think it can legally be sold as a branded product if it is not.

That would be false advertising. And potential for a law suit from the company who trade marked ROX.

ROX is made by NORIT AMERICAS. Anything else is not ROX.


Wes. How much do you want for a pound? I have a scale I can bring over.

Throw this out there....

Anyone in Edmonton who may be interested in going group on a 5 gallon pail and splitting cost equally let me know.

I could never use a 5 gallon pail of it in my lifetime. Shoot me a PM.

just a note that 5 of the 1g containers is cheaper than a 5g bucket due to volume discounts.

Ok maybe not! I do recall noticing that trend for the bulk chems (and I just re-confirmed it with calcium).

Pat I'm in if you want to get 2 other people (4 people total) in the 5G pail. We can split the total cost and it would be worth the cost of shipping.

Pat, I'd be in for some Rox!

paddyob 10-16-2011 08:23 PM

Ok. Let's see if we can get 2 more people.

3 pounds each.

Wayne 10-16-2011 10:23 PM

I will take a share.
