ESV BIONIC seawater system salt

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.

After reading about this salt my only question is wth are the LFS thinking not carrying this stuff it sounds like heaven in a bucket or in this case buckets lol I wanna use this stuff in my nano Sounds awesome

For the die-hards: premiumaquatics sells the 200 gallon package for about $160 with shipping.

lol i bought my 200 gallon kit for $71.99 shipped to the border.

I called ESV directly a while back to see if any Canadian retailer showed interest in carrying the product. They told me no one has ordered it or had any orders pending.

Also - when i ordered my batch from Premium Aquatics they advised they cant keep the stuff in stock for more than a week. Most of their "future shipments" are already pre-sold before they even arrive.
