I am planing on buying a bulk load of seaweed powder ( 1 Ton )
from Australian Kelp Products Pty Ltd

By the time it is shipped from SA to QLD it will be around $10 per kg

would anybody be interested ? or does anyone know of a cheaper solution ?

I figure this is better than paying $70 per 10L of seasol from bunnings at a mixture of 1ml per 30L water
hopefully the powder will be more concentrated option ?

Do you need that much? Seems like an awful lot of money to spend to get a "bargain"
Will this powder dissolve or just become suspended in the water making it cloudy?

well its about 4 years supply ... I use around 5L of seasol a week ( over 100 000L tanks excluding grow bed volume )

if the fish don't eat it the worms will,
plus thinking about selling biochar with worm castings and worm juice

so the seaweed would help get up all the trace minerals

taskelp was the only other cheap option @ $12.8 / kg in smaller bags

does anyone else know of a cheap supplier ?


currently for me to resell @ $10 / kg shipped

500g $12.84 ( $25.68/kg)
3kg $42.73 ( $14.24/kg)
5kg $66.25 ($13.25/kg)
20kg $200 ( $10/kg)
