Added six line and snail now frogspawn wilting and more

So yesterday I added a six line wrasse and a Mexican turbo snail and today my frogspawn is drooping now and there is some little yellow sprinkle looking things on my live rock. Any idea what could be going wrong? parms are all within range and a water change was done yesterday. I am more concerned about what the yellow sprinkle things are. thanks.

Do you use a refractometer? The water change is the likely culprit, temp, SG, new water, etc..
A snail or 6-line would not hurt a LPS, IME. What size tank, and double check your SG.
Yellow sprinkles?? never seen it, could be precipitation of calcium carbonate?

+1 to the water change being the source of your problem. How big is your tank? Also (just checking) you didn't introduce the fish store bag water your sixline came in into the tank, did you? Many LFS run copper.
