You're bacteria is NO3 limited right now. Get your NO3 up and PO4 will come down. Carbon dosing helps.
Also, blow off your rocks before you do a water change every time.  |
Look up redfields ratio, but based off your parameters i dont think that is your issue..
It would be unusual for for cal and alk to "stay steady" without dosing and and doing water changes every 4 weeks... but if your levels are acurrate and stay steady i would think it may be some contaminant..
