Ok, so I forgot to add some irish moss in this last batch, but from my travels it seems that irish moss is mostly just used for clarification, and Ive heard of being able to use gelatin powder when kegging as a clarifier. So, my question is, is there something I can add to my 2ndary to make up for the mistake? Its a light colored IPA, and the plan is to dry hop, so theres gonna be lots of stuff in it.

I'd go with isinglass before gelatin, gelatin seems to work better with lagers. Or you could just let it sit and it should drop clear. At my brewery I only use finings as a last resort.
