Did you recently do a water change without letting the new water sit for a day or two with an airstone/powerhead?
The same thing happened to a friend of mine and he said he didnt let the water sit he just added it right away.

No fatalities it went away after a day or two.
How did you mix up the water before adding it?

I just put the salt and water in my sump and let it run for a little in the sump without the return pump going, but with my skilter running.. then about 10 mins later started up everything.. probably just did everything too fast..
