My routine is as follows:
1. Shut off my two return pumps; which then draws back some water into my sump.
2. Drop an alternate pump into my sump (which holds about 35 gallons at this point); hook up a hose an put the end directly into my floor drain.
3. Start pump and focus on all the crud on the bottom.
4. Then pump 35 premixed saltwater gallons into sump.
5. Restart return pumps.
This takes 5 to 10 minutes tops. Super easy. There are even more automated ways to perform this function; but it works for me.
