I had my lfs test my water levels and heres what came back

Nitrate 0
Phosphate 0.14
Mag 1500
Alk 9.1
Ammonia 0
Calcium 425

I have a 25 gal AIO tank and i do a weekly water change but i can seem to be able to lower the phosphates. I havent been able to get it below 0.08. I was thinking to start dosing nopox but ive read mixed reveiews and i dont want to start putting random stuff in the tank, im a newbie and ill probably mess it up even worse. Also is the high magnesium dangerous or not? Im sure (maybe not to sure) that the low nitrates are due to not feeding a lot i only have 2 small clownfish and i dont feed them like a mad man, i also feed the corals with reef roids once a week. Is there any way i can have some nitrates and normal levels of phosphate?
 
Forgot to mention i dose 4ml of reef for all daily, i hd low levels of alk a while ago and they are stable now, this may be why the mag is a little high
