I've been at 0 ppb on the Hanna ULR Phosphorus kit until today I finally hit 6 ppb (0.006 ppm). Phosphate is easy to increase - just feed the crap out of the fish. Why don't you switch back to normal biopellets?
Was hoping to emiminate the use of GFO which i did. I feed alot pellets twice a day via neptune feeder and then frozen at night as well as nori every other day. Also dose red sea reef energy.

Started kalkwasser again recently (still dosing 2 part as well) which may also be contrubing to the elimination of phosphates. Figure maybe dosong a bit of phosphates might get my nitrates a little lower.
