I wouldn't. It won't kill them but it may upset the balance. What's wrong with your RO?

My membrane is shot and my di is all used up now.
My TDS is 67. Within a week my auto top off threw my tank for a loop.
I really need to do a water change so until the new pieces for the RO system arrives, I thought maybe I could do this.

Thanks

I would probably wait for parts, pay a little extra for fast shipping if needed and if absolutely nesesary get water from a store. However 67 isn't too bad, is that through prefilters?
