Not to exactly hijack the thread, but I am having problems finding CaCl in S. Florida? Anyone ever use a pool supply CaCl additive, like this: http://www.lesliespool.com/jump.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&itemID=8145&iMainCat=14&iSubCat=107&iProductID=8145&tabID=2?

I split this into a new thread.

If the product isn't based on Dow Flake, which might be hard to determine, it'd take some expensive testing to determine whether it's appropriate to use in a tank.

Thanks. I've emailed the company for an MSDS sheet, but even that won't completely list impurities. $10 for 4 lbs of 94-97% CaCl caught my attention...

The Dow Flake was actually cheaper, even mail order. I think I was paying around $1.40 per lb, shipped.
