Anyone see Dead Sea Mag Flakes anywhere?

[newreefer03]

Starting to get low on my Mag Flakes. Just wondering if anyone has seen any bags of Dead Sea Mag Flakes being sold at a local Home Depot or Lowe's. Thanks.

mag pellets are around a lot more often; I have 2 bags left from last winter

I think you mean the Peladow? Have you seen that anywhere? I'd be happy to get either.

I think he meant actual mag pellets.
The same company makes both mag flakes and mag pellets, they both work great for Randy's recipe.

Yup, mag pellets/mag flake are used for Mg supplement.
Pedalow is used for Ca supplement.

Keep us posted when/where/if you find mag flake/pellets. Last year I only saw the pellets once and that was on a VERY dusty pallet in a corner of a HD. I haven't seen mag flake around in a couple of yrs...

Thanks all. I will check National Lumber. I haven't seen the Dead Sea Brand for a couple of years at HD or Lowe's.
Anyone know if any other brands are safe to use.

Duh, I forgot Peladow was CaCl2.

I picked up two 50# bags of Magflake at Home Depot on Goldstar Blvd in Worcester last year.

Alot of times you can find that stuff(Mag Flake) at masonary type supply stores, they use it for dust control on construction sites.

I bought 5 bags today at Russells Garden Center at $27.99 not including tax. I have 3 left for sale. Russells has a few bags left (3) after I loaded them on the cart.
