Solo77 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Cheapest i think is iwarna. The rest, slightly higher price. Mixed comment on quality of the seawater. Think you got to try out yourself and determine which is more worth. All the best.

chtan23 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 What's the average price for seawater from LFS/farm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo77 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 they sell per pack(plastic bag form) or you bring the jelly can container(sold by them) to collect. Per pack is around $1 to $2. Per container is $2 and above. If regular customer, may have discount. Hope this help.

Solo77 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 bro, you have to take the risk for new seawater. As i said, got lots of mixed feedback. You have to choose the best option which you feel comfortable......doesnt mean salt mix wont be contaminated....but maybe risk is much lower.
