stangmus Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 I was about to order 3 bags of controsoil, and it looks like they pulled it from Amazon. The links on their website do not work either. Quote

DETAquarium Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 Weird the website looks to have been stripped of all information. Can't imagine them stopping production and sales in the US, it had to of been taking off substantially for them. Quote
jledermann Posted October 12, 2015 Report Posted October 12, 2015 Funny you guys say this, I ordered controsoil from amazon on Thursday with prime shipping, but noticed it disappeared a day later from the site and it should have arrived Saturday. I am still waiting but should receive it and now it says ETA is Oct 15th-21st Quote

tree hugger Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 I was scrolling around the net yesterday and happened upon a website (cant remember which one) and was creeping on a forum that was all afire about controsoil killing all their shrimps/fish. I wish I could remember where I read it because there quite a few po'd people ranting on the subject. I'm not even sure that it was current or not ??? Just thought I'd ad. Quote
jledermann Posted October 13, 2015 Report Posted October 13, 2015 please find that post, could be a recall situation? would definitely be relevant... Quote
Jadenlea Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 That would be.... annoying. but yes. If you can find the post because my tank is cycling with their latest batch of controsoil so if there is a recall Id like to know before I add the shrimp. Soothing Shrimp 1 Quote

jledermann Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 I opened that at work and started laughing when I saw the picture. No wonder someone took his product and just repackaged it and out sold him, I wouldn't trust a single thing that guy was on. How is he not a meme by now? Quote
Jadenlea Posted October 14, 2015 Report Posted October 14, 2015 He does look like the sham wow guy!!!!!! Quote

Rivergardennursery Posted October 18, 2015 Report Posted October 18, 2015 FYI, if needed I have a few bags in stock. Shipping is crazy expensive.. Anyone in the area, please swing over, or I am looking into USPS flat rate shipping for 12.00 http://rivergardennursery.com/freshwater-shrimp-food-and-dry-goods/ Thanks and enjoy - Scott Quote
