The fluid chosen for the manometer is somewhat dependent on what the fluid is that you wish to measure the pressure of - as well as cost. The cheapest fluid is probably water, but you have the obvious issue of evaporation. In the short term it works well thought because the water is cheap to replenish. It works particularly well when measuring pressure drops in pipes carrying hydrocarbons or oils in general because the water is pretty immiscible with the oil. Other common fluids are mineral oil and Mercury because they have low vapor pressure.
