Natural Sea Water

[expat701]

Does anyone home deliver natural sea water in Singapore? If so is it clean and reliable?

When I lived in Sydney I could get water collected at sea delivered in 300 liter batches. Very convenient!

I dun think u want the sea water around here dude....

how much u paid for that truck load of 300L??

any problem with storage?

[oshkosh]

Don't know of any NSW supplier in Singapore. Anyway, the water around here is quite polluted. I wouldn't recommend it even if you come across such a supplier.

[pospeh]

I believe some people use NSW here. It is supposedly filtered, but the thing is you have to lug it home yourself, which is a major pain.

Saw one farm in Paris Ris selling NSW. I think it is R**f W*rld if i am not wrong. Not sure if there is delivery.

[expat701]

yeah I was worried about pollution... In Sydney I think I was paying $120 Aus for 300 litres. It worked out well at that price and it was much easier than mixing my own. Anyway, just thought I'd ask

I have seen some of the shops get seawater delivered by a truck with large tanks on it. They pumped the water into storage tanks in the shop. It suggests that the water is ok, maybe worth talking to a few shops to see if they have a contact

Hi,

I used to order a tank of seawater @ S$ 120 (i.e those water tank that you can sometimes see behind truck, not sure what's the capacity tho' but easily above 500L), there's no limit on volume..so long as you have storage tank, you can draw all the seawater from his tank. Also not sure whether there is any price change.

Understand the vendor drive their truck to a road extended out to sea (i.e. in Pasir Panjang) and then dropped a hose into the sea and pumped up the seawater.

In my opinion, it's better to run the seawater through filtration first, and not add direct into the tank with livestocks.

As you know, there is always potential risks of using seawater, be it raw or filtered.

You can contact this gentlemen, Mr Chua @ 98263502 (R****n) if you are keen.

He is a nice guy.

Alternatively, you can get those 25L water containers and buy filtered seawater from LFS @ about $ 4. It will be hard work though. I do this every week.

Hope the above is helpful to you,

You should get morgan to help you here.

He pumps in 1 ton of NSW to his reeftank and FOWLR tanks. The NSW is off Bedok Jetty.

I wouldn't say the water is exactly very clean but he has been able to keep SPS corals without much problems.

I got mine from RB too. They do provide delivery services at a price. It will be better if you call them up to enquire.

[Mellow]

yup, the farm at pasir ris actually is connected to the sea if i'm not wrong..heard it from Kenn*.... should be re**wor**....but it's been filtered before usage..

At,

morgan uses water from bedok jetty and he keeps sps? amazing...he filters the water with what? that place always kena oil spill and get some oil sludge...gotta be careful man

Yes, I know a guy who did that and supply it to T9*. It seems like local water is not as bad. This guy is a freelance in this business. I supposed his charges will be lower than market rate. PM me for his contact if you're interested.
