I am removing my coral and placing all of it (about 50 pieces) into huge storage totes (the totes will have the tank water, powerheads and heaters). I cannot put the coral in my new tank for atleast 24 hours because the two 500w heaters have not arrived and the new tank is too cold (I assume). Therefore, will my coral be ok for 24-36 hours in the temporary totes if the water is fine, the temp is fine, and movement is fine but I do not have lighting to go above the coral...? Or can I place them in the new tank if the temp is like 60 degrees? Thank you.
 
Yes they should be ok that's about the time it takes them to ship sometimes in dark bags
