For mail order try these guys.

I have bought from them before and their product is excellent and it is cheaper than any health food shop as they have high mark ups.

When you find it dont forget to wear gloves when mixing, it can get messy.

When i made my fish food i thought that this stuff was that healthy i thought i would try it in a drink as per the instructions.......YUK!

The fish dont seem to mind it thought.

:lol:

I just had a look at the link and have used the Hawaiian brand before. But if you can, buy it in loose powder form as it cost a lot more in capsules and you have to open each one up.

Cheers
