What are the odds...?

So what are the odds my frag tank will recover from an overflow which caused a power failure? 10 Gallon QT/Frag Tank in the garage, heater broke loose from its mount and fell against the float valve controlling the ATO. ATO overfilled the aquarium enough to drop salinity from 34ppt to 29ppt and shorted out a Powerstrip and tripped the GFCI outlet. Temperature got down to 67 degrees when I noticed it first thing this morning and salinity like I said was 29ppt. I got everything sorted out power wise and the heater is warming the tank back up and I've begun to raise the salinity. It's around 32 right now because I always keep salt water ready to go. How fast should I keep raising it back to 34ppt? What are the odds the frags survive? It's stocked with 1 stylo, 1 birds nest, 1 chalice, and 3 zoa frags. Also has inverts, no fish.

Don’t rush the salinity. Nothing’s gonna die at 32, but I’m certain .5 to a full point per day might be stressful but doable... I bet your losses are minimal. I wouldn’t do it on purpose but my unheated seahorse tanks regularly dip down to 69, I got plenty of corals in the tank..
good luck

So the tank is up to 34 as of tonight, It went a little quicker than I wanted, but everything looks surprisingly ok, I'm truly surprised. I felt sick to my stomach with how long I've had things in QT. Trying to be very strict with QT to not ever deal with ich in my main tank again after going fallow for 76 days etc...so far so good!
