How the heck to you guys get this stuff to dissolve into the water?!??!??! I can get it to! any ideas? I just started using it and it's a PITA.

 

[spypet]

you don't & I use it daily.
it won't harm fish or verts.
just let it fall to the bottom
and it will dissolve over time.

Why pay the price?

There are cheaper alternatives out there.

GH booster is about 1/10th the price.

GH booster? by who? Rex- Is that in the new line up you're putting out?
Does GH booster have Calcium? I know a lot of r/o right sort of things DON"T (probbaly because it's hard to dissolve I'm guessing?) And that's why I recently switched to equilibrium.

GH booster? by who?...

It's called Barr's GH Booster for $5 per pound. http://www.aquariumfertilizer.com/store/aquaticplantfood.php

600 grams or 1.323 pounds is on sale at the Dr's for $7.59.
http://www.drsfostersmith.com/produ...x=mode+matchallpartial&Np=1&pc=1&N=2004&Nty=1

This works out to:
GH Booster - $5.00 per pound
Equilibrium - $5.74 per pound = $7.59/1.323 pounds

Grumpy's GH Booster. $7.00 for 2 lbs.

Has calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and manganese

Made from the same ingredients as the big guy's stuff.

I'm sorry. I didn't know that you carried it, Rex.
I like the name, "Grumpy's GH Booster.": hihi:

By adding it to my other post; this works out to:
Grumpy's GH Booster: $3.50 per pound
GH Booster - $5.00 per pound
Equilibrium - $5.74 per pound = $7.59/1.323 pound

Hey Rex, do you dose yours the same amount as Greg's old gh booster.

 

[Rex Grigg]

It's a bit different.

5 grams will add the following to 10 gallons of water

25 ppm K
39 ppm calcium
12 ppm magentas
0.15 ppm Fe
0.07 ppm Mn

Adds just over 2° GH.

Do you know what the concentrations of Barr's GH booster from Greg Watson are?

 

[Rex Grigg]

That I do not know.
