Default Tank was Unplugged - temp dropped to 66

So my girlfriend just called me and said the lights didnt come on. Turns out the reef keeper got unplugged sometime (probably last night) and the temperature had dropped to 68 degrees. She said she plugged it back in and everything is working again.

My assumption is there is nothing i can do but let the tank heat back up. But I was wondering in these type situations is there anything else that should be done? I know sudden temperature changes is not a good thing. So I dont think putting another heater in to bring the temperature up faster is important.

Luckily the protein skimmer and the mechanical filter are on a different socket so they were still running.
