Water question

[dugthefish]

Been a bit slack on water changes lately. Have about 25 gallons saltwater mixed up from a couple weeks ago. Sometime in the last 2 weeks the submersible circulation pump I leave in the tub went out. Think the water is still OK to use?

I wouldn’t worry about the water being bad because a pump quit. Just put a new pump in and continue on. I don’t continually mix my saltwater storage. I do the initial mix then mix for a few minutes before I use some. Haven’t seen an issue and I store for long periods sometimes a month or better.
