Check your Reef Crystals Salt!

[GreshamH]

Pshh, I took earth science instead. I ended up teaching the class mostly as the teacher didn't know squat. I had to correct his tests prior to him giving them to the class he didn't even know what a convection cell was

Maybe the lack of cheap salt shipping will instead turn people to buying locally, instead of arguing $2 savings on shipping for a particular salt

Haha... I've been told that many many times

Do you know how caustic it is mixing your own salt? That will add a whole new level of reefing and knock a major portion of reefers right out of the picture It will also add a new ailment to reefing that we'll have to watch for

I have seen numerous GB's where one would buy all the material and "weigh/measure" it for the rest.

Ok, so the person organizing, premeasuring/packaging is not the average person and in all likely hood, they know what they are doing. This non-average person now ships out a home brew of salt to the average reefer. ..Average reefer gets UPS package containing a bucket of DIY mixed salt. How is this any more dangerous in the caustic sense than someone who opens up a bucket Reef Crystals salt and mixes their own SW?

/DIGGG!!!

 

[sfsuphysics]

Mixing your own salt mix? Really now? Sounds like more trouble that it's really worth.

 

[Mr. Ugly]

I'm gonna make my own water too!

 

[Mr. Ugly]

Y'know...

People make their own:

- beer
- bread
- pasta
- cheese
- salami
- prosciutto
- hard cider
- yeast cultures

And it all can be better than what you can by at the store. Why not salt?

I think that's the only thing I can make. Not sure it's usable though LOL ...

 

[Gomer]

You aren't making water, you are purifying it. Norm and I will actually make water this coming weekend when we burn hydrogen and oxygen. Better than RO/DI. Going to sell it to the stores at $1.27/uL

 

[pixelpixi]

Just let me know where I can pick up a bucket of "Mr Ugly's Beautiful Salt Mix" and I'll be there.

 

[Tumbleweed]

I heard that he was making it and giving it out as a door prize at the next meeting ;D

 

[Mr. Ugly]

We're going to sell a water making kit. It'll come with dewars for liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen, tubing, platinum catalyst, and a 44gal Brute container.

You can buy it as a stand alone kit, or you can add the Oktoberfest upgrade for making your own doppelbock.

Other upgrades will be the roast your own Kopi Luwak kit, the spotless car wash kit, and of course the Brawndo Reef Salt kit (rich in electrolytes that start with the letters M and C).

 

[pixelpixi]

Now that's what corals crave!

 

[Mr. Ugly]

 

[sfsuphysics]

don't you need hydrogen, oxygen and fire to make water? Why don't you keep things simple?

Add in shipping it VIA UPS with jno discount and it'll be more expensive

You just like to argue, er, see yourself type?

/done with gomer :lol:

No need to spin in price to get away from losing! This wasn't about price You brought up the group buy to begin with.

Don't need fire. That's what the platinum catalyst is for

Our kit with the liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen is better than the ones with just compressed gases. You can make a lot more water before you have to refill the kit

Mike, you can help us with the patent

/tired of chain getting jerked

It sure is indeed about price Just why do you think people do group buys? They enjoy the hassle?

No, I need to get to work, plus, you keep taking it to other places
