You can used bottled water, but be sure it is labeled "drinking water" or
"filtered water".

Mineral water has higher than usual amounts of minerals that might not agree
with fishies... i would not use it...

however, once in a while i supplement my fish tank with one or two bottles
of the stuff... it's just that changing water with it will probably cause
some shock...

The bottlers are under no obligation to keep the same recipe. In fact
they probably use more than one bottling facility, so your bottle's water
parameters may vary by batches. For fish, stability in water parameters
is good, so if using bottled water, use small water changes often if you
are not certain of the water's parameters. ymmv
