I made a rookie mistake Friday before leaving work. My office tank is pretty basic. A stock biocube 16 with 1 reefbrite strip and aqamai kps. Before leaving work I topped off with saltwater instead of rodi. I didnt notice until this morning when I came in and noticed my elegance looking bad and starting to detach. I have readjusted the flow a little so it has gentle easy movement on the flesh. I've been correcting salinity from 38 back to 35. I bring in test kits from home so I cant test the rest of the perameters. Is there anything else I can do to keep it from ditching its skeleton?

Back to 35. Any tips at all?
 
The elegance is returning to its former glory. I was worried about the flow on the part that was receding so I turned the frag a quarter of a turn and readjusted the flow a bit. Three days later its looks great again. :D
