My ato failed

[Treenk]

My ato failed and 3 extra gallons went into my 29g biocube and now some of my zoa frags did not open at all should I add salt? What's the best thing to do?

What was your salinity before this happened? What is it now?

3g is only going to change the salinity very slightly. they are just acclimating to it.

 

[Treenk]

From 1.026-1.024

Your fine...just add some salt water on your next top off

From 1.026-1.024

your zoas wont die from that. leave it be and itll slowly evaporate back to your original salinity.

I would do nothing right now.
You could hold off topping off with freshwater, or do a water change with a little higher salinity.

 

[Treenk]

Well I wont need a top off soon, but a power outage could lead to over flow on the sump.

You could take a couple gallons out and then replace with the same water you took out manually over the next few days, then your salinity will be back to normal

Here is the crazy thing 3 drags closed because of it but this frag who has not opened at all in 2 weeks is somewhat trying to today
