If you go online to Petsmart you can get a bucket of reef crystals for 26 bucks and change. Choose pickup in store. Amazing deal I would imagine it's the same for the purple bucket as well ------------- 90 gal reef w/refugium 24 gal softie tank 11 gal nano anemone tank 5 gal fresh water |

Here is the page I found it listed, as a Memorial Day Sale. http://www.petsmart.com/paging/page1?PageSize=24&CategoryName=900003&CategoryDomainName=PETNA-36&SearchParameter=%26%40QueryTerm%3D*%26CategoryNames%3D300000%26More_Ways_to_Shop%3DSale%26OnlineFlag%3D1" rel="nofollow - http://www.petsmart.com/paging/page1?PageSize=24&CategoryName=900003&CategoryDomainName=PETNA-36&SearchParameter=%26%40QueryTerm%3D*%26CategoryNames%3D300000%26More_Ways_to_Shop%3DSale%26OnlineFlag%3D1 Regular IO is out of stock at 6 stores near me, but IO Reef Crystals was in stock at the Sandy store so I snagged it. Thanks Dennis.  At $26+tax I couldn't pass up this deal even though I have a full 200 gal box of IO recently purchased for what I thought was a good deal at $45.

THEY TOOK MY MONEY BUT THEN THEY CANCELLED MY ORDER.  I WENT TO THE SANDY STORE YESTERDAY AFTERNOON AND WAS IMMEDIATELY TOLD THAT THEY DON'T HAVE ANY AND THAT MY MONEY IS BEING REFUNDED. I SAID, WHY CAN'T I GET A RAIN CHECK? THEY SAID NOTHING. I WALKED OUT.TODAY, THEY STILL HAVE MY MONEY. It's just salt but it's the principle of the thing. The email cancellation came yesterday afternoon, more than 24 hours after they took my money. Tomorrow I'm going to call customer service with my complaint. I'm thinking of posting the complaint on Facebook, and lodging a formal complaint with the BBB. Was there anyone here that got this salt? Thanks for responding, Mark

I actually got to much of it. It's reef crystals and will be bringing some to the meeting Thursday unless someone wants to drive to my house to.pick it up. Fcfs no holds. $28 at my house 30 at the meeting either way is a great deal. Text is best as I will be out today. 435.890.6626 Dennis ------------- 90 gal reef w/refugium 24 gal softie tank 11 gal nano anemone tank 5 gal fresh water |

At my insistence a PetsMart Customer Service Supervisor (Randall Brinkley for future ref) agreed to give me my bucket of reef crystals the next time they have some in stock and he offered it to me for $25. The catch is that I have to monitor availability online, place the order when it comes available and then call customer service with reference to both order #'s. I'm happy with that.

Got it! Online still showed "not in stock" for 7 stores. Dropped by the Taylorsville store to check and they held the bucket for me until I could contact customer service. Returned to the store same day and purchased a bucket of reef crystals for $25 plus tax.
