FM Balling Light Set Availability

[Rolliad]

I want to start on the Bolus method and try it out and I'm looking for the FM Balling Light Set. It's apparently out of stock everywhere??? Does anyone know a place that has it in stock? It's wild that it's just nowhere to be found!

I found it in stock in euros on H2O aquatics if that helps.

Edit: another in stock on CoralVue in dollars

I should have clarified "US Availability" - I did see it in euros in a couple of places but I'm not keen to pay that shipping. Haha!

I found one in dollars on CoralVue in dollars. But other than that, some stores sell the different elements individually depending on your specific criteria.

Yep, but that leads to a "where to buy" link - and I can't find any in stock :(

I see now, then I'm not sure. Have you tried contacting your lfs' to see if they, or their suppliers have it?

I just purchased everything I needed for the FM Balling Light system separately from CoralVue on their "retail outlet" site. The only difference in the individual products and the set is the set adds the (3) 5L mixing containers, some tubing, container labels and a free code for the AquaCalcualtor app. I bought some containers from US Plastics for mixing. Downloaded and just paid for a year subscription to app and I have my own dosing containers, tubing, etc.

You can purchase direct here...

I’d just caution to not believe all you read or watch on bolus dosing. The product itself is probably ok (though perhaps not ionically balanced like TM Balling is) , and dosing alk all at once may be fine, but there’s a lot of pseudo science claimed about it that just isn’t sensible.
