Where the save dir is depends on your OS, Mac OSX uses 'Library/Application support/Aquaria' i think, Linus uses '~/.Aquaria', and on windows its directly in the folder where you installed Aquaria.

I guess you are using windows, so:
Copy the *.aqs and *.zga files from your demo's  save dir to the save dir of the full version. That'll do.

Ack! There are no files in either game's save folder!

Really? When you start the game, can you resume to a previous state? If not, it means you lost your saving points.

Where did you install the demo to? I heard it has problems writing save files (and may silently fail) if instaled into "C:\Program files" or whatever else your program's dir is... some stupid write protection that was introduced with Vista. On XP it works fine though.

Oh and just btw, if you need saves... can give you my old demo saves if you like. If you really don't have yours.
