It depends a lot on which salt you use. I use AquaVitro from Seachem. It mixes very quickly and I no longer wait for 24hr to do a WC.
I used Tropic Marin before and I used to wait 48 hours for it to mix. I normally would consume all the mixed salt water within a week though.
If you keep it...
I already posted a thread for who Arnold was :)
Here is the answer the quiz - Arnold was a "Melanarus Wrasse". To me he was dead 4 months before I went fallow. I never found the body in my fuge or on the floor so I presumed it to be dead.

Depends on what you plan on leaving behind. The bacteria is minimal in water column. If you pull all the rock out you will pull bacteria out as well.
There is bacteria in sand and filter (if you have one). That said, if you bioload is too much, then large water change could be an issue.
How...
Live rock can stay out of water for quite some time. If you think it will take longer to do the scape, just get some wet newspaper or paper towels and wrap the rock in it.
You just want to keep the rock moist and you will be good.
I empty my sump once a month. The SOB survived that for months. I was so baffled how the ich came back and that is when I found something in the skimmer :(.
So we are at end of Level 2. Sorry to disappoint everyone, but nobody got it right in level 2. Well I knew it was not going to be that obvious :) :) ... So I learned the hard way that there are downsides of having a large ..... Skimmer. Yup, arnold survived in my skimmer for about 4 months...

If you said something like that, just stick to one choice and reiterate it ;).
