Do you have air making bubbles going? The loss of oxygen in the tank will be worse than small temp swings.

Is the tank still at 29C? There’s really no way to tell for now it depends on how long it’s staying at that temperature. I had my tank reach 30C for like 8 hours and it was a close call but everything made it including the hammers.

Figuring out the hobby one coral at a time.
Kind of hard to tell from the angle of the pic, but is all that mush on the one head the hammer?
If it is, I would be fragging that head off. Almost looks to be the early onset of brown jelly. Pull it out and smell that mushy looking head. If it smells of death, cut it off before it effects the rest of the coral.
Although 84F isn't super high(my tank gets to 86 for very short periods of times in the summer), it can have detrimental effects in the long run, specially if your inhabitants are used to it.

This would be my first priority. Get a batter powered air pump and get some oxygen going it.
