I can buy salt pretty much anywhere here. Ocean is too far away 
I've never seen NSW for sale anywhere local.

Convenience, cost, and ability to have some attributes higher than NSW, as well as lack of potential problem organisms and ability to store long term (weeks) without concern for dying organisms are advantages of artificial mixes.

I live in Australia in a large city.Been running my tanks with NSW but been having issues with algae ,I know that some of the rivers or at least estuaries around the city have mercury issues from farming run off.Not sure where this water is collected....

Yes, depending on where it is collected and how it is stored.
