ESV BIONIC seawater system salt

anyone use this stuff in Canada? I like the concept of mixing your own salt and adjusting certain components as needed.

Does anyone even carry this stuff up here? I called JL but they said they have no intentions on carrying it even though they have other ESV products.

I would prefer sticking to one salt but I dont want to go over the border every time i need the stuff.

I'm also interested in finding a Canadian dealer.

there isnt any and no one seems to be interested in shipping salt up from the US vs. importing it from all over the world

i just drove across the border and had premium aquatics deliver it to the border. I have yet to use it but i have heard nothing but good things about it.

I'm with you on this one, this stuff looks very interesting. Here's a good review http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2010/5/review

i'll post a video review when i mix my first batch. Supposidly its ready to use after thirty minutes of mixing.

only con i see so far is the really cheap boxes they use to package the stuff. comes packaged in two boxes - each box wieghs close to 50lbs (makes 200 gallons) and they look like they have been through hell and back.

I will need to source some of those pump heads they use on the "bleach style" jugs to make things a little easier in the measuring and mixing stage.
