I've had experiences in the past were CA and ALK would test at the correct levels, but the corals didn't grow until I supplemented. Some forms of Calcium are just not as readily available to be used by your corals as others.
Are you runing a CA reactor or adding any type of 2 part solution? I personally wouldn't add kent supplements/nutrients or take the skimmer off line... .if you need more nutrients feed your tank more with a high quality food like Rod's.
Just my 2 cents, but we all have different methods to achieve the same goals.
