Diadema basslet seems ok. The tank has a nor of surface mulm. i would begin with Gentle bursts from a turkey baster and start immediate siphoning. Repeat in 48 hours and assure filters are clean(ed) and run carbon and assure salinity is 1.024-1.026, and monitor ammonia levels which will go up and down over a few days

Listen to vetteguy. He'll steer you right. I do see very positive signs in your biocube. You have a lot of life bouncing back already.

In a few weeks, take measure. You might need to do some wholesale adjustments based on the die off accumulating waste products.

For now, you have received some really good advice. All that I can add is to always have extra salt mixed and ready to go for a while. You just don't know when you might need it again.
