Salt Water w/out aeration?

[Scuba Steven]

hello all. i've had some saltwater that i bought from my LFS about 4 days ago. havent used any of it yet, i've just kept it in the jug with an air-stone.

anyway, last night it got unplugged, probably between 17-20 hours ago. is my salt water still good after this long of a period without air circulation? any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I store extra saltwater in jugs for a week at a time with no aeration and no problems. Just be sure to aerate it before using. Just pouring it from a jug into a bucket has been adequate in my experience.

I keep mine in a closed 500 liter drum for months on end - only gets opened for refil or w/c
