    Here is a glimpse of the new extra coarse ARM calcium reactor media from CaribSea. At this grade, you should not have to worry about packing and CO[SUB]2[/SUB] build up. Another nice touch is the Extra Coarse version is spiked with three times the magnesium found in other versions. Extra Coarse ARM is graded and processed for immediate use, no rinsing required.

    I've been using this for about a year and seems to keep my mag little more stable than before.

    I think you probably have been using the same stuff I have been using in my GEO reactor. This product is new, and not like what we have been using.

    I will have to try this when i need new media, as my mag levels do still drop even though the carib sea ARM I am using now does still allow the mag levels to drop a little. Hopefully the new ARM in this post makes it so i don't have to dose anything.

    I don't like to assume;) I mean maybe ardo has a hook up for the new supply and has been beta testing it?

    Well the rep told me it was new and I couldn't find it online, so I posted here, then as mentioned it looks like BRS has it - so I don't know. I would like to talk to that rep from CaribSea again. :)

    Wonder if the Magnesium spiked part is new. Either way I think I'll try it when I need to refill my reactor again.

    Well that would be Jud, want his email? He's leaving soon for Germany and will be all wrapped up in Interzoo for a little while.

    I gave some away at last years BAYMAC and IMACwest. I still have some they sent for me personally, not for the shows.
