They will be a little stressed, but should survive with out the lights. I just hope they did not sustain a major shock when the lights hit the water.
Best wishes

yes they are a little shock but i don't believe the light hit any of them. i am going away early tomorrow morning and don't have time to buy new lights after i came back on tueday. i really hope they would last 3 days without lights

I would think they would be fine for 3days, but when you get new lights acclimate them to them kinda slowly, I wouldn't just start them up for the length of time you had them on before.
- IF it was going to be longer than three days you might want to find a friend with a reef tank or a LFS that could hold them for you
