Salt mix / standing

Hello,

I've had a salt mix which had been mixing but unfortunately the heater and powered had been turned off by mistake. It's been like that for about 24hours with no heat or mixing. It's perfectly clear, is it still OK to use?

Thanks

I use saltwater that has been sitting around for weeks with no powerhead or heater. Though I do swirl it a little bit before I use it.

Freshly mixed saltwater does not need a heater nor a powerhead and it can be closed up and stored indefinately to be used when needed
