Interesting.  I didn't notice 2 forms being sold.  Not that it 
matters much as I dont intend to use FeCl unless desperate and I'll 
get the pre-mixed stuff from radio shack.

And, yes, I added the dry stuff to the water but it still made a 
horrible mess splattering.  Even small amounts caused problems.  I 
did have several years of University Chem so I know the proper 
procedures.
