Just a note. The free shipping over $175 at brs does not apply to canadians.

If these are as high quality as brs I am very interested but I'd need some hard proof as the brs stuff is incredible and I believe part of my success so far.

Don't feel bad, I thought that I qualified a few times before I finally clued in!

+1 for the quality and price. Will be interested and following this!

Fantastic news. I'll be following the results closely. Much rather drive and pickup than give BRS my first-born to ship the stuff.

A very busy day,and its not over yet.
I received the chemicals
Wow the price difference between food grade and pharmaceutical grade.
Who want to do some testing post some replies.
The 1st 5 people that post on this forum will be the ones to have a 1st go at it and documented of course on canreef and caco3reef.
Sorry only Calgarians or i should say whoever can pickup the bulk reef chemicals.
I should have most of the information on the bulk reef chemicals up in the next couple days.
of course i will be doing some testing to.

BRS chemicals are pharmacetical grade that they purchase in bulk and spend little to no money on fancy packaging or advertising so they can offer the good stuff in large quantities than companies like Kent/SeaChem/Marineland, etc. Most of the other companies use food grade or "industrial grade".

Remember that food grade and industrial grade doesnt necessarily mean its purer - the differenent grades allow for different levels of certains elements to exist within the product. I would think the pharm. grade stuff has fewer "toxic" or "reactive" elements for its probably being used in conjuction with other items to create medication and what not.

I'm sure Caco's stuff will be just as good as lBRS's as long as its certified as pharmacetical grade.
