Is Gallon Water Safe?

Okay, so after a few water changes with the park water where I live(not on city water) and having continuous fish infections, no matter if I pre-treat or not. I wonder if it would be simpler and safer to just use store bought gallon jugs. And if its okay, what kind should I use?

Someone will likely be able to advise to specifics... but the water is fine, just sometimes if its been distilled or whatnot its lacking in some required nutrients that you may have to re-add... I've never done that before but I'm sure someone else will come along and be able to say something useful to that tune!
