Question Can I save & reuse water for Vandas?

I have to soak my two new Vandas everyday. The water is still very clear and seems like a waste to throw it away. I wonder if I can reuse the same water multiple times? And what about the water with...

The one I just saw today and wanted to buy looks very similar to yours and it is $21.99 + tax! Hm.... I wonder if I should wait? Maybe my farmers' market might carry it.
