Hard to say for sure. If your SPS we’re already stressed by things like high nitrates, fluctuating alk then a temp drop could be the last straw. If they were not stressed then there’s likely to be no affect. Keep an eye out for bleaching. I had a temp event
I have my thermostat set at 80 degrees and the chiller will drop it about 1 degree an hour. So from 80-65 prob. about 12-15 hours. When I got home and found the tank like this, the chiller was still running and some kind of way the thermostat was set at 55 degrees. I'm sure if I would have been gone one more day it would have just continued to pull the temp down and everything would have been dead. To this day I still have no idea how it reset itself to the default temp of 55. It was on the tank for over 3 years set at 80 and even with power outages and moving the tank(chiller was unplugged for many hours) and the thermostat always stayed at 80. Since this happened over a year ago it's been set at 80 and it's never had a problem again.Thanks! Any idea how long it was down at 65 for? Mine couldnt have been more then 1 day at most before I got home and it had to be a pretty slow decline (at least I hope on that slow decline) so it could have actualy been at 68 for less then 24 hours.
