Interested in a bulk reef supply order in the interior

So I emailed Bulk Reef Supply and asked them about the GFO, this is what I said:

For that $130, which GFO is going to suck up the most phosphate? Is volume or weight the determining factor?

Cheers!

Here's his answer:

So from that, it would take 16lbs of the GFO to equal the absorbing capacity of 8lbs of the HC GFO. In that case, it costs less shipping to buy the HC GFO, and makes the HC GFO a much better buy from all perspectives.

So what do you guys say? Go for the HC?

You have such a way with words Myka...I'm convinced...HC it is.

Hehehe!! Well ok, I'm in for about $50-60 of the HC GFO then...depending on who else buys it, how much we get for our buck will vary. I want to try out some of their Eco Rox too.

I'll take $40-50 of the HC GFO as well....what about the carbon now?

[RonPeter]

I'm interested in the 1.25 Pounds Premium ROX 0.8 Carbon as well.

I might be interested in some Eco Rox as well....maybe.....

Hey Mark, I would might be interested in an RO\DI unit and maybe some HC GFO as well... Let me know when you are going to make the order and I'll see if I can scrape together the funds.
