Got water got light, sure got algae..

Unless there is something in the water that feeds on algae which will help to control the growth.. like catfish, snails etc..

or.. you can use vk's method...... :evil:

[quote=\"FQW\"]Talking about saving water, I've this dehumidifier at home in one of the rooms. In a week I can collect cold water the size of one full pail which I'll then use to splash on the toilet floor.


So to save water [it's free, it's from the air], buy a lot of these dehumidifiers can liao.

In our case, we have humidifier in our rooms, not dehumidifier...

I have a dehumnifier too. Not sure if the water in the tank is clean? Feel like using it to water plants, but scare that my husband's plants will die... :rotflmao: In the end I use it for pouring into sink.[/quote]Assuming the dehumidifier is clean.. (the container etc..) the water collect should be pure (unless your room very dusty etc..).

It is definitely cleaner than tap water.. and free of chlorine too.... can use for fish tank, water plants.. etc..

But hor.. disclaimer..

at your own risk hor.. my comment carries no liability one.. wait your plant uplorry........ don't look for me...... :evil: :siam:

Ok basic question here.


Does the electricity tariff differ depending on the type of property one stays? I'm not talking about utility rebates from the govt; those I know depends on property owned.

I think so.
For HDB, electricity/water cheaper.
