Basically i was refilling my tank with juice and i have the dropper style bottles and it happened to be a glass dropper, in really dim lighting i decided to refill and somehow the dropper got stuck and as i pulled it out it broke a little bit. I managed to get the largest piece out and a few small shards but im worried i didn't get all of the pieces out, and i am honestly scared that ill suck the glass up and it will get in my lung. Keep in mind i'm fairly new and not sure if it's anything to worry about and if so how to revert to safety. Thanks in advance?

Disassemble wash thoroughly and you should be fine. Really make sure you take apart EVERYTHING, but Tonee N is correct, your tank should be fine. Toss the juice though (I'm figuring you have, but just in case).

ETA, actually, if you can use another dropper and didn't reinsert the dropper, since it broke in your tank, you might actually be able to save it. As long as you are pretty certain all the breakage happened in the tank.
