In the case of waste water quality, there is a few different tests for phosphate, ortho vs total. They are used to test for different types of phosphates like biphosphates and triphosphate, and lots of other forms. So there are different types of phosphates, but I really don't know if they make a difference in the reef.

But all that said, your corals look great!
