If your no3 and po4 is super low yes it will. Corals need light and food for their photosynthetic algae to thrive, a major nutrient source for algae is nitrogen and phosphate. You want to keep levels low but detectable. If you system already has controlled low nutrients carbon dosing will not help any and can cause major issues.
