Ocean water is sinking. What happens when water of a high density sinks?

An object will float in a fluid (gas or liquid) if it's average density is less than that of the fluid. That works for gasses (helium balloons rise) or liquids (bubbles rise). So, increased density of the water means that denser objects will float.
