I was fixing my saltwater mixer yesterday and I forgot to turn off the valve that feed the tank for water changes and leave the mixer over night filling with new r/o water and this morning my wife came after work and found the sump overflowing, my salt went from 1.025 to 1.015 now I'm working getting it right some if the sps are showing sing of rtn. so sad I feel so frustrated

I had a problem a few years ago that saw my SG to down to 1.015. I wont lie to you, it wasnt pretty. Hope loses are a minimum though and you can keep on truckin.

wow that realy sucks i hope you dont have to much loss

Sorry to hear about that. Hope that you can keep losses to a minimum. Don't do anything too quickly as you don't want to stress your critters even more with a rapid salinity shift back to normal. Raise it through a number of water changes not all at once.

Your corals are probably going to suffer...unfortunately, but cmax is right, do not raise it back up to quickly. Fish can deal with salinity being lowered quite drastically, but it needs to be increased very slowly. I would just start topping off with saltwater until the situation corrects itself.
