Thanks. So I had a subscription with petco. The shipment was damaged. They never called, charged my card anyway. They are now out of stock. Im looking for Pro Reef which is sold out online. except the price gougers have it for 200$+ a bucket. Pass thanks.
I guess there are supply chain issues all over the country. Non essential to human stuffs are on lower priority. It seems that shipping within the state is pretty ok and normal, but cross country shippings are messed up badly. Fedex still can’t deliver one of my equipment order from a supplier in California after 6 days delay.
Even medicine for my pets from Chewy.com is delayed until further notice. My cat’s treats from Petco also got delayed by UPS.
Amazon is still deliver normally for human food.
It’s always reccomended to ease into a new salt, wether you mix it 50/50 new/old for a couple water changes. Although I don’t think changing would cause an issue personally considering if you’re only doing 10% weekly, just make sure you’re main levels are good.
BRS has Tropic Marin BIO-ACTIF SALT MIX. I am thinking of switching from Pro Reef to BIO-ACTIF than switching to entirely new brand. Do you see any issues.
From what I’ve read, Bio-Actif has slightly higher Alk 8-9 and carbon dosing (most likely Reef Actif) pre-mixed with the salt. Mixed salt needs to be used within a day or two due to the carbon dosing additives.
I looked into this years ago because of the 8-9 Alk, but decided against using it since the salt can’t be mixed and stored. Pro reef can be left mixing and used a month later.
YEP...my cousin just ordered a spare box just in case i need it and he placed the order yesterday and i'll be getting it Friday. But he paid $62 for it jeesh! I paid $45 for it!
I don't understand how they do it, now reef crystals on chewy is $67 ???? They are all whacked ... It almost doubled. Maybe make up for their low price the other day. weird
