RO/DI water change ,,, let me know if you need some ,,i have some you can have ,,,bring a few buckets and i will whip some up for you

if my fish were in the tank for one day without the salinity lvl dropped will they die

speaking from my own experiences my salinity has dropped all the way down to1.016. i was wondering why my zoas and shrooms were acting weird ran some tests and figured out it was the salinity. do a water change and make the water real low in salt then add very slowely and tweak as you go. i have done this in the past with no ill affects. good luck .

Whatever you do, do it slowly. Assuming you acclimated your fish, they will respond much better to a slow reduction in salinity, than to a drastic drop.

Two questions for you; where is your sg and what are you using to measure it?
If your above 1.027 I would try and bring it down with a little more urgency.....say .001 every couple hrs. Just not in 1 quick step. Fish tend to acclimate to decreases much easier than they do to increases in salinity. Also, unless your using a refractometer I would retest and be certain you have no small bubbles on your swingarm or hydrometer; they will give you a false high reading.

hope this was some help
