Why don't you just purchase "Safe" through David Rose. It will last you forever.

I'm sure that the choice between the 3 mentioned products is a matter of personal preference. I started with prime when I came back to fishkeeping, and see no pressing reason to change. It's reasonably convenient and inexpensive in the 2L size from Kensfish, and it's worked well with Denver's chloramined tap water...
Dan @ Elite Aquaria (another sponsor of the site) also sells Cloram-X:

+2, if you use Prime, Safe is the exact same thing, just a concentrated powder. You will save hundreds of dollars, no joke! I've always used Prime, since I started keeping discus and if they had SAFE back then, I would have easily saved 4 digits by now! Trust me, it will be the best INVESTMENT you ever made in your life!

Sorry Prime and Cloram X are not comparable. Cloram X just detoxifies/removes chlorine, chloramines and ammonia, Prime does a lot more, so it really depends on your starting water parameters and what you want to do with it.
To compare two products compare Prime vs Ultimate. Or Safe vs New Pond (New Pond found at jehmco.com) for power formulas. Yes the powder will save you some bucks over time.
Sponsor Kensfish has good descriptions for some of the products, it really depends on your tap water and what you need to do with it.
Hope this is helpful.
interesting thread, i've been using ultimate for quite some time and i've been pleased. does anyone have any reason why i should switch to prime?
WOW.. alot of response.. lol thanks so much.. Yes i do use "safe" right now, but i can buy a 10# pale of clorem x for 55 bucks, and "safe" is 75 bucks... Also,nothing against David rose, but his prices are alittle high, the 8.8oz "safe" he's asking 30 bucks for, i buy for 8 dollars elsewhere online, and that 8 bucks i spent on safe makes 4liters of prime for those who might be wondering.... thanks for the help though!! Ill stay with what i know works !!

Think with logic and rationality more than emotion. Act with moderation and consideration. Contemplate ideals and realistic goals and weigh out possibilities and options. Temper not with personal delusions or false hope but learn to accept and move on.
My apologises on reading it wrong... Guess i know where to by my "safe" from now on!
