There's a guy in Manitoba that has been selling bulk dry goods for cheap. They are better than food grade but probably not quite lab grade either. I bought 90 lbs of Kalk and 90 lbs of Magnesium through him. He also has Calcium Hydroxide I believe. He's got his own big tank setup and just buys his supplies bulk and sells what he dosen't use, so I'm not sure what he has or if he has any left. You can find him on RC under the screen name littlesilvermax.

I bought my CaOH from Shao, last year for $5/bag (big bag) and still hae it now. Not sure the source, but it works, doesn't turn anything brown and it's a lot cheaper than a LFS brand

I am almost out of magnesium, but I have a lot of kalk left.

PM me for details. I also have food grade calcium chloride, made by Dowflake but rated better then the ice melt stuff.
