So I came home to a mess in my tank. First thing i noticed was my sump was awfully full of water. Apparently my tubing for my aqualifter for the ato somehow fell into the tank and created a syphon and never shut off. Result was my tank salinity dropped from 1.026 to 1.022. Should i just let it evap to the original level and let the salinity slowly fixes itself?

1.022 isnt that low.Where these fish and coral come from have a much higer salinity.

I agree that 1.022 probably isn't an emergency. I'd let evaporation move the SG back to normal, as you suggest.
