Ok found Norit Americas & there is no mention of ROX just activated carbon.

I wonder... does anyone care enough to read signatures if you make them really small? I would not. I would probably moan and complain, read three words and swear once or twice. But since you made it this far, please rate my builds.

Oh cool thanks, I still like the bigger size of carbon pellets then .8 & it all sounds the same to me, not to mention easier & faster to get from CaCo but to each is to own.

Hello all
not trying to stirrup any wrong dispute everyone is entitled to their opinions about any given product price tagged and used,lets face it we all like to get our hands on the best and highest quality with the lowest price tag (as for me I detail my product test it over and over and give out free samples as I receive it from the manufacturer to get everyone's reply for myself and the rest as we all share a common goal) Most of you who know me on a personal or business level know that I will never carry or promote a product that I don't believe in to place in my reef system.
For those of you needing information on the names and product I carry be it ROX1.3 or other you may want to check out my 1st post on Activated carbon under my forum, that should explain what I carry,the quality and the origin of it (www.canreef.com/activated carbon)
For those who are interested in the shipping charges We have it posted on every individual page of caco3reef.com/

PHP Code:
[b]FREE SHIPPING THROUGHOUT  CANADA WITH A PURCHASE OF $100 AND OVER WITH NO HIDDEN COST[/b
As I said earlier Please don't take what I wrote as a dispute as everyone is entitled to their opinions
And now I am off to try and figure out my pump problem

Yeah I'm not trying to stir anything up either I'm still just confused as you said in that previous thread that this product doesn't come from NORIT. We've seen the demo and we know it's an effective product regardless of its origin. Of particular interest to me (with regards to the BRS ROX 0.8) is the fact that it's extruded. I suspect there's no other product readily available to us with as few fines and this seems to be significant if we consider new studies linking HLLE to carbon fines.

Where it says $11 per lbs free shipping with any other item with free shipping.....simple......$100 of any other product & 1 - $11 pound of carbon....there's no shipping cost.
I was just on his website under the ROX 1.3 heading and it states "Free shipping throughout Canada with a purchase of over $70 with no hidden cost". Then at the bottom of the page it has 1-9lbs of Rox for $11 with "free shipping Canada wide with any other purchase containing free shipping". So if I wanted to buy 8lbs at $88, which is $18 over the minimum order required to get free shipping as stated on the same page I would not be getting free shipping until I buy another item worth over $70. Hardly clear at all as it doesn't state that the $70 order for free shipping is only for some items and not others.

Oh ya I see what you mean now, I will let Eli know about that confusion next time I talk to him. Thanks for pointing that out.

I was thinking probably a typo or something missed in a web site update. I have never met Eli but he's supposed to be a really honest and good guy to deal with.
