There's one for sale here actually, http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=184919

But I suspect that you already know that.

Yea I'm needing one by this weekend. I was in talks with snoopy about buying hers, but it won't make it by the weekend unless I pay just as much in shipping as the product itself :(

The walmart near me doesn't sell much fish stuff at all. A bit of fish food, some tiny tanks.... That's it.... Not even any fish...

Some of the other walmarts carry more fish stuff?

Can I ask a quick question about these, if it's not out of place?

Is it safe to add tap water to a tank before it's treated? I'm particularly concerned about Boston tap water because it's VERY alkaline (i.e. off the scale on any aquarium water tests I have!) It usually takes quite a bit of Acid Buffer to get the water to an appropriate pH. While I'd imagine that the fish would be ok with a little chlorine and the like until the chemicals treat it, would they be ok with that high of a pH for a while?

Also, if I were to use one of these, would I add the amount of Prime that is appropriate for just the new water added, or for the total of the water in the tank?

Thanks!
