I have an tank that been up and running for a month now and im thinking of adding more live rock. Will adding more rock directly to the tank have any side effects? So far i have 15 lbs in a 46 gallon, im thinking of adding another 10lbs or so.

You actually need a minimum of 45 lbs in there. If you add one rock at a time, you may be OK but you may also be doing WC to combat any die off/ammonia/nitrite. How about purchasing rock & curing it in a bucket, before you add it to your tank, to be sure.
