Ok, so I’m mixing up some saltwater using an old flow line voltage flow pump. Went to check it and the pump stopped working and I noticed what I would call salt flakes floating on the water. I pulled out the pump and the power wire was broke all the way off and I could hear the arcing on the end of the wire. The breaker did not trip.
So is this water still ok to use or should I dump it and start over

Is it even worth the risk of not dumping it and starting over?
