Most likely a stupid question.

I live at the beach. Can i just grab water out of the ocean?

Maybe is not the best thing to do, due to the water polution

it can be done, but i dont recommend it for a couple of reasons. first like rafa said, is pollution. especially around any tourist beach like Myrtle. the other would be bacteria that the fish, and corals we keep are not used to. filtering, and use of a UV sterilizer will help, but i still wouldnt trust the water unless you went miles off shore. just my 2 ¢

Unless you're able to get several miles off-shore, I wouldn't recommend it. Too much pollution issues to worry about.
