We have powerheads circulating the water and tomorrow I'll be moving the lights over top the tubs. It might take a day or two to get everything back up due to the massive cleanup of the floors. How long can they be in the tubs without causing problems? I'm worried about the cup corals and anemone mostly.
I'm just glad I went to check the front door to see if it was locked up.

Oh wow! Sorry to hear about this
I'm not sure how long things can stay in tubs, I've heard that water movement and stable temperatures are more important than lights for at least the first couple of days. Good luck in the recovery!
