Dowflake Calcium Additive and Bromide

[Buckeye Field Supply]

Many of you are aware that DOW announced their Dowflake product will contain significantly elevated levels of bromide. Their original announcement indicated the elevated bromide would be present in dowflake manufacturered beginning 1 Jan 2006. Dow later changed the date to 1 Jan 2007.

Rest assured that the Dowflake we have was manufacturered prior to 1 Jan 2007.

Happy reefing!

We'll make sure that any dowflake we purchase has an acceptable manufacturing date.
