Question about copper

I recently had a leak in a water line and had to cut it out and weld a new piece of copper in its place. During this time I had a bucket with premixed saltwater ready to go for my weekly water change. I also had to turn off the water to my house while cutting this tube. To cool it down the plumber dunked it in the bucket of premixed saltwater.

I dumped that water out and am rinsing the pump, heater and bucket with vinegar/ro water now.

My question is will the bucket, heater and pump be ok to continue using as my water change tools?
 
Shouldn't be a problem. Your vinegar rinse might even be overkill but why not go ahead it can't hurt. I probably would have just chunked the water and made some new.
