It is not my best day... My brand new coral died and my overflow started leaking so I had to turn everything off... The only thing I will be able to turn on is the heater and light for now... Is that okay? My sump will have to be off for a day or 2... Will they survive?
 
Aim it a bit to the surface of the water to get some gas exchange....assuming you have live rock in the tank, you should be good to go for a while
 
As long as you have some amount of flow you should be ok for a day
