So I was doing weekly maintenance last night and I unplugged all my pumps and skimmer and my heater. I thought I had plugged everything back up well i could see my skimmer was on my pump on my fuge and all my powerheads but I did not plug in my heater of all things!!! I just woke up to see my tank temp sitting at 67!!! Am I going to have issues from this?
I have a mix of LPS and softies as far as corals go. My fish are hardy and they all seem to be out and swimming around.

Thanks,
Javier
 
ive done it...i dont think my tank got below 70 though. Good luck and hope it all does okay. Id say throw an extra heater in if u got it. HTHs
 
you should be ok. ive had my heater go out. Reached into my tank to do something and it felt like ice water. I just put a few heaters in and warmed it back. Dont remember losing anything
 
Thanks Dev. Yeah im getting my temp back up but I dont want to raise it too fast. My bubble coral and candy canes are closed up and a couple of my softies are as well. My fish are sluggish but they are out Im just looking for my Tailspot blenny. We shall see.
 
You should be good. I forgot two weeks ago and left everything off all night - power heads, heater, sump return pump for twelve hours or so. Nothing seem to be affected and no losses....
