Everything is fine except the zoas (some are out, some are closed), torches and Duncan.

 

[fishguy242]

[Wolters_88]

Another picture showing the snails. No clue why they are doing this.

My snails sit up top all the time for some reason. They go back and forth.

 

[fishguy242]

Salt was not mixed properly and a concentrated portion upset some of your livestock.

The meat looked heavenly haha

Wouldn’t they open up by now if that was it?

Following as I have the exact same problem, sir. I believe I didn't mix the salt up correctly as I could see super tiny pieces floating. Is there a way to rectify that issue, assuming it is the problem?

Some can die off if the solution was too concentrated. I once threw sand directly into the tank without mixing and I lost a few torch corals and a wall hammer.

Think about it like a sunburn. The damage is already done. Just gotta give them time to recover

It sucks yea but don’t sweat the petty stuff. Live n learn buddy, we've all been there.

Crazy since that’s exactly what I’m seeing. The torch’s and hammers won’t open.

I think you and I are in the same boat. Snails and all. Hope our boat ain't sinking.....

Your snails look like they are half out of their shells too?

Yes sir. Lost a Coral Banded Shrimp, and a few Blue Legged Crabs. My Emerald is fine as is are my fish. (knock on wood). But yes, my three Turbo snails and one of my Trochus are acting as if they want out of their shells. All of my corals with the exception of my GSP are closed up tight. All after a water change.

I am sorry for your loss. I still miss the color variants in the corals I lost. I learned that, some salts tell you to mix for no more then a hour. Others say at least 24 hours. Check out the instructions on yours, to know for sure.
