No. I'd frag and monitor parameters for a couple days. Dosing that will just throw things more out of balance. When's your next wc?

Not trying to hijack thread, but this has made a question pop into mind. With the Monti, if this happens, would you frag it by cutting off the dead around the edges?

No way to lower... It's a single bulb. Should I raise it up?

10 gallon nano-reef coming together

I doubt it's a light issue if they were under kessils, like bribo my first thought was alk too. Fragging or using super glue gel over the exposed skeleton are your best bet if it gets too bad Run a full set of params tests and see what's up.
