Where is the best place to purchase Carbon and GFO? I see a lot of BRS group buys but after looking at Reefwater the GFO is cheaper there. At BRS 1.75lb of high cap.GFO is $59.99 at Reefwater i can get 2lb for $49, Are there other places to buy these supplies at decent prices ?

I've tried more than once to get stuff from reefwater, but they always seemed to be out of everything, so I end up just going back to BRS.

Maybe they've improved their stock levels who knows....

I stick with BRS as well. Just habit and been doing business with them for a while with great customer service. There will be another group buy posted in a week or so to start purchasing the 7th I think. Keep an eye out.

I ordered a couple things from Reefwater and was very happy with the purchase.  Received fast and without incident.

I have also placed several orders from BRS and did need to contact customer service regarding one order but everything was resolved quickly and repalcement part sent out immediately.

If there isn't much of a price difference I prefer to buy most of my items at local stores, but when it comes to certain things (like Carbon and GFO) you just can't beat the online prices!

Wow, I never really looked at their site before. Weird that they sell the BRS labeled GFO for cheaper then BRS themselves. Reefwater currently has it listed as OOS on their site though. Maybe they are buying in bulk pails and reselling? Not too sure. Great deal and local which I do like, but OOS drives me bonkers lol.

Ah so nothing has changed.  OOS.com  should be the name of the website lol.
