Hydrogen peroxide anyone?

I'm looking to purchase some Hydrogen Peroxide to bath some reef rock in. I need about 10 to 20 gallons. Where can you purchase Hydrogen Peroxidein larger quantities; not the pint sizes available at your local stores?

"Aqua Silk" at Leslies Pool Supply is 28% H2O2 and you can buy it by the gallon (about $15, I think). The normal is 3%, so a gallon of Aqua Silk is like 9 gallons of the regular.

Is this the stuff? http://www.lesliespool.com/aqua-silk-13341-algaecide-1-qt/13341.htm">http://www.lesliespool.com/aqua-silk-13341-algaecide-1-qt/13341.htm</a> I don't see hydrogen peroxide as an ingredient.

You want "Aqua Silk Chlorine Free Shock Oxidizer". I don't see it on their website, but they've had it at the Toco Hills store the couple times I've looked for it.

This is the stuff, but you probably don't need 4 gallons of it...

Good to know - I've been looking for 15-20% concentration a few times over the past year to play around with a DIY oxydator build.

Be careful not to get any on your skin! The 25% difference is measured in pain, especially if you've got any papercuts.
