Carophyll Red

Postby lizcol on Thu Nov 06, 2008 8:38 pm

After the concerns raised by members at the 2008 AGM about a continual supply of Carophyll , the Council are pleased to announce that we are now in a posistion to supply paid up members of the LCA at advantagious prices .

Paul Brockman will run the Carophyll supply along side the Rings , indeed it was Paul that sourced the supply and negotiated a 'keen' price for a bulk purchase. The Carophyll now in stock has a 18 month shelf life .

You may be used to receiving your Carophyll in tins or containers , the reason the LCA have got a discount is because we shall buy it loose and it will be measured out by Paul who will supply it in polythene bags inside a dark envelope (wage packet style) this will then be sent to you in a padded Jiffy bag.

Pack Sizes 10 gms £ 4.50, 15 gms £ 6.00, 25 gms £ 7.50, 50 gms £13.50
Please add £1.20 package & postage to a maximum of 100grms (if you require larger order please ring Paul for postage costs).

You can print out an order form by visiting the main site .

For this 'experiment' to be a success and for the LCA to be able to keep prices low we need all LCA members to support the scheme and purchase your Carophyll from the LCA .

Spot on news about Carophyll red, it just goes to prove the old saying right.

I'll be ordering some for sure Paul, when does it arrive?

I'm not desperate for it as i still have 2KG of softwood with colour food mixed in with it and i'm only feeding once or twice maximum a week at the minute.

Regards

since caraphyl has changed to the cold water soluble stuff it hasnt been the same......

this season i used CAN-TAX,its made by orlux i think,and my colour has been very good.
the old saying "if it aint broke2 comes to mind so i will be using the CAN-TAX again this coming season.

the amount i used last season only cost me 12.50,i will be buying the 25 quid tub this year and will let you all know the dosages i use....
