Where can I get pure ammonia from?

[pseud]

I've looked in the cleaning aisle of the grocery store and found something called 'clear ammonia'. I looked on the back and it said it was 'ammonium hydroxide, surfactants, opacifers'

If you've used ammonia to cycle your tank, what did you get? can you check the back of your bottle and see if it says it contains these things?

If not, any ideas where I can get PURE ammonia from?

It would help us if we knew where you were from...

Oops, my bad, sorry.

I've tried Stop and Shop and Big K Mart so far...

You don't want anything with surfactants in it. Chelating agents are ok thought. that is simply a bonding agent to keep the mixture "mixed".

ok, I did find some in Walmart.
Has a purple label on it. Nearly left before finding it, was hidden on the bottom shelf right at back, behind some moth balls.
