I accidentally killed flow over night

[splix]

I'm a huge idiot. Instead of using the feed cycle on my wave maker, I just turned it off real quick. Wouldnt you know it, I forgot to turn it back on! OMG, I cant believe I did that. Power heads were off for around 12 hours, 10pm to 10am.
I still had drain and return pump flow but in my 6' tank, it doesnt cover much, but at least it kept o2 going in the tank.

PH stayed relativly stable, it went to 8.29 from around 8.26 so no worries there. Temp in some areas of the tank probably got a little lower, around 79 from it's normal 80.

Did I just kill everything? What should I watch for? I noticed a couple corals slimmed up a little but nothing major. I've got to figure out a safety mechanism to prevent this in the future.

I figure livestock get shipped in bags via mail all the time. Your situation can't be much worse than that.

IMO you should be fine. As you said the corals may be in a snit for a couple days but should come back around.

Very true! I didnt think of that.
I dont see any noticeable affects of it yet. I'm worried the SPS will show in a few days. The only thing I noticed right away was the toadstool wasnt polyping, once the flow came back on he is now. I had water exchange happening with the sump drain/return so I dont believe o2 levels would be hugely affected to the point of fish suffocating.
I just hope I didnt wipe out all my high flow SPS.

My toadstool generally pulls its polyps in when the lights start to go out at night so I don't know that I would be too extremely concerned about that one yet.

I actually wired a door alarm switch to a breakout box and my apex to avoid this exact problem, cause I've done it to.

Now all I press is a door alarm switch and it can only go into feed mode with no fear of setting in some other mode.

Mid day, things are looking normal. Acros are ****ed of course but whatever, I hate how difficult acros are.
