My tank pH goes down to 7.7-7.8 at night, and I'm trying to remedy it, but I think short-term while treating dynos that the low pH isn't cause for concern. However, I would immediately re-calibrate that meter just to be sure.

OK, calibrated. Was a little low 7.95 with lights out now @ 27.5C tank temp.

7.95 isn't really "low". Steady pH is more important that proper pH. I'm going to start a kalk drip into my tank to help pH.
