I used demineralised water for top ups and in ASW for water changes for a while - I have a nano, and the RO unit paid for itself pretty quickly. Woolies couldn't keep up with my need for 12 or 13 2l bottles a fortnight :P Had thought about distilled myself, and the process and its use of copper had put me off. If you're looking for demineralised, try the supermarket, probably in the laundry area, as it's used in irons a fair bit. Found it cheaper there than the stuff at Bunnings.
The dozens of empty bottles come in handy :D
