    Default Spirulina powder?

    I just dropped by a local health food store asking for spirulina powder. None - $30 for tablets in a bottle of 100. Trying to cultivate some algae on rocks with the powder.

    Anybody know of a good source for Spirulina powder, or even capsules? - I can open up the capsules and use that too?

    Are you trying to grow a spirulina culture? 2-3 years back I bought a bottle at one of the health food store at Landsdowne Mall in Richmond. I can't remember which one but the brand is "Earthrise" 180g powder. 100% natural.
    You can visit the website
    Welcome - Earthrise® Nutritionals

    it is distributed by New Age Marketing in Surrey BC.

    I guess you can contact them and ask which stores they supply that product to.

    Thanks for the source, I think I can look up some suppliers in my area. I'd be using the spirulina powder as seed to grow algae on rocks and rotate them into my tanks for the algae eaters.

    I was going to check Nutrition House @ Metrotown. I think they carry Earthwise products.
