Nope.

Also, you can buy diatom powder in bulk at a pool supply store.

I'm finally running out of powder from the 10lb Vortex bag I bought years ago,
and am looking to restock -

Should I just ask for diatom powder at the pool supply store?

Thanks for your help -

Hi yomoe, yes I would ask for the diatom powder. Call around before you go.

 

[Matty]

cant you just buy more from vortex inc.?

 

[fishing4exotics]

It's cheaper buying it in bulk and if you find it localy you save on shipping. Here is the link if you want to order it online.

but i heard that vortex doesnt honour your warrenty if you dont use their diatomm powder. does it matter?

 

[fishing4exotics]

Never heard of that. But, if it true how would they know you are not using their powder?
