So when installing new Pinpoint pH probe I didn't notice the electrode was broken and the KCl leaked into my 20g tank. I don't have access to a potassium test kit in a timely matter so I wanted to know if it would be harmful? So far all corals and 2 bta's appear fine. Any info is greatly appreciated.
pH Probe Leaked into tank

The small volume of saturated KCl will not have a problematic influence on the potassium concentration in your tank, so in my opinion no actions need to be taken.
If it was ~10 ml volume (which is a lot for a pH probe) the potassium increase would have been in the range of ~20 mg/l if the solution was saturated.
