Kelly says that in moving the tank this evening the Specific Gravity got down to 1.018 and he ran out of salt. That's the reason for the emergency. I let him know that it won't be a bad problem going down to that level, just raise it up slowly over the next few days. Coral might get a little irritated but should be fine. Fish don't care. In the wild they can handle swift drops in salinity because of dilution from heavy winter rains and runoff.

Welcome to the forum,
