Salinity

If I have a leak and can't do a water change to salinity from 1.022 to 1.025 till tomorrow will my fish and coral be fine?

They will likely be fine. If you have a leak? Is this a hypothetical situation or do you have a leak and low salinity and no salt on hand?

I have an fx4 filter and the drain plug is leaking and I think something is stuck in it and not allowing it to close all the way. So I just need to wait till tomorrow so I am not up all night doing a 20% water change and cleaning of the filter.

Maybe consider taking your ATO offline until then so you do not lower the salinity any further until you can get it fixed.

I would take the filter offline. Pull the pipes so the leak stops. As long as you have good flow in the tank, a day without the filter would be alright.
