I just keep towels handy like everyone else. My sump is plumbed through the wall into my furnace room, I am a little concerned about the long term effects of salt water so close to the furnace and water tanks and so forth, but I have seen no problems yet. I do like it though as it makes water changes a breeze, old water gets pumped out of the sump down the floor drain, new water gets pumped from a rubbermaid garbage pail into the sump.
My worst experience with a mess was with my very first salt water tank, I set up a 10G and it was running for about a week, fortunatley I was at home and in the bedroom when I heard a "crack" the tank split down the middle and water started gushing out.. I grabbed the thing and hauled it water and all into the ensuite bathroom bathtub, I was lucky to only lose a couple gallons onto the floor.
Like has been said, if you have a tank ful of water, it will get on the floor at some point.
