I have not had very much experince with cowfish but if you're fish are alive by tomarrow then you should be out of danger.

I think you are in the clear by now.....cowfish are really not good for a reef anyway....they eat all kinds of worms, blow a jet stream of water in the sand to uncover creatrures to eat, and in my experiences....... take nice chunks out of corals around the time they reach four or five inches.
