Any interest in carbon GROUP BUY?

[Armando]

Just gauging if there is any interest from members and sponsors for a carbon GROUP BUY

 

[ScottM]

brand and type?

 

[Armando]

Marineland Black Diamond seems to be the one most people like/use. It's important that is a phosphate-free one.

 

[Brian]

I might be

 

[Cliff Tishler]

Yes, I would be.

 

[Rob]

sure

toss my name in, but could use more specifics.

[Armando]

i'll give it to the end of day tomorrow (Friday). if i don't hear from any sponsor, i'll cancel it.

 

[joefitz]

Only if we can get 55lb bags...

 

[reefnroll]

Ditto what joefitz says.
In that case, I'm in.

Just got off the phone with Marineland , they told me the biggest amount they sell is the 3.65 bottle , it is not available in bulk bags

Scott how did the test come out on the bulk bag you got, could you please post the results

I also got a bag & use it with no problems but you had it tested

 

[ScottM]

are you looking for fine, pellet, or coarse bulk?

 

[Armando]

how about another brand?

How about the carbon you get at walmart. It is made by Marineland...heck it is the same container as black diamond. I've been using it for over a yr and works great. It's called Aqua-Tech ..900ml is something like $3.50 retail. Maybe we can get bulk of this stuff. I'm in if it is cheaper and same stuff...

 

[ScottM]

I have been using petcetra. its bulk carbon so it needs to be rinsed WELL before use. no problems with it. someone will need to give me a strong case to spend alot on carbon.

Can anyone locally order large bags from ESV ?

I've split these before with Joe V. the shipping wasn't cheap. I think they come in 80lb bags.

The ESV carbon is a good quality carbon.

 

[littlep93056]

68 lb bags
