Stagnant water... dangerous?

About 2 months ago, I set up a little (1 or 2 gallons) breeder tub for my clown killifish, then moved them back to their tank, waited until the babies hatched, and moved the baby elsewhere.

After that, I unplugged the sponge filter/heater and kinda forgot about it for at least a month. Now I am wondering if I must throw everything away like the heater, sponge filter, moss ball and decor or a quick rince in aquarium water would be ok to use these things again?

Thank you!

I would not throw the heater or sponge filter away or any of the decor....I would clean them thoroughly and reuse them.  Not sure about the moss ball....does it look healthy?  You could clean everything else and set back up and rinse the moss ball and QT it for a short period just to ses of anything funky is going on.
