Ummmm...Anyone, if Swirh is off base here feel free to interject and correct....but Swirh would suggest getting some fish...and while at it look around for something to clear the water up where you can see them really good when you have nothing better to do than look at your fish.

Most "Sears" Dept. stores carry it in the plumbing section. It is used to regenerate iron filters. It's not watched at all as far as SWIM understands. Just don't try and buy it with 4 boxes of E and 3 different solvents at the same time =P



EDIT: Grammar

every chemist will have it. PURE. its used for skin complaints such as tinnea. one trade name I know of is Condys Crystals. Hope I was of some help. BTW, the generic brands will often just have PP written on them.

Very easy to order Sears stopped stocking it but still has it in their catalog and will order it for you.
