    Yeah I tried getting some from them (disguised as my concrete company so they would sell it to me as concrete color instead of drinking water purifier) and it is SOOO hard to get anywhere with them!

    I wonder if after delivery charges if it will be any cheaper than buying from Bulkreef supply during a group buy at 5gallons a time.

    What we use in reefs is the same product used in water treatment to remove arsenic. I have posted this many times over the last decade.
    I am not sure the concrete colorant variety is the same product and it certainly would not be ANSI/NSF tested or approved for contact with drinking water as the other varieties are.

    If you are fortunate enough to work in the drinking water industry as I do it is pretty easy to come by but not so easy otherwise.
