good deal on IO salt

jph · 04-08-2007, 11:20 PM

just a FYI;
i was browsing for some good prices on salt mix, and noticed that drfostersmith was having a sale on IO and reef crystals.

i ordered four 160 gal. buckets of IO, and only had to pay something like $15 for shipping

its a sweet deal.....i think if more people knew about it everybody would buy from them.

They seem to be "on sale" about half the time....but even when they arent........its still only $36 for reef crystals with ridiculously cheap shipping.

I had a small puncture in the top of one of my buckets one time...i called them and in less than a minute conversation they had a new one being shipped out. Excellent customer service

Everytime I have to order ANYTHING from Drsfosterandsmith, I always throw in a bucket of IO salt. The shipping is the same (or maybe a dollar more due to the increase in price of my total order). It's like I'm buying the IO salt with zero shipping because I had to ship the other stuff anyway

I have some on the way from the good doctors myself. Can't beat the price or the shipping.

We just did a group buy here in Ft. Myers and I purchased 2 RC buckets for $33 each with shipping
