reefnjunkie Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I thought I saw another group buy for BRS somewhere. I dont mind supporting the LFS, but when the product I need is 5x as expensive, well thats a tough pill to swallow 1 pound vs 4.5 pounds and the 4.5 pound is even less money. If there is one that someone knows of please reply. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoseCityAquarium Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 You can ask the store you frequent if they could match the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I ran the last group buy. I will probably run another one at beginning of April. I like supporting our LFSs as well, but there are just some things they do not have in stock, like pharmaceutical grade bulk/dry chemicals. There is also nearly no way they can compete with the price...It cost me $2.80 per gallon for calcium and alkalinity. I use almost exactly 1 gallon per month. It would cost me a FORTUNE if I were to go with whats available locally (Kent, Brightwell, or B-Ionic). Then there is magnesium. It costs about $9 per gallon from BRS...try buying a gallon of magnesium from a LFS... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefnjunkie Posted February 17, 2010 Author Share Posted February 17, 2010 SWF soon to have BRS products!! I decided against it, I was talking with Patrick at Salt WaterFantaseas he opened an account with BRS and will bve carrying some bulk Mg, Ca, Kalk etc. give him a ring if you are interested- I have not discussed pricing but being he can see what we would pay, I can't imagine him making his costs more money- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowman Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Davy Jones Locker has had an account with BRS since day one. He has some of the chemicals in stock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
