I have been battling with No3 and Po4 for quite bit of time. Dosing NoPox for more than a year without much improvements. My nitrate were in the range of 30 ~ 40 and Po4 was in the range of .70. I added Caulerpa to my refuge like a month back. And yesterday my Po4 is around .26 and No3 is around 0 ... Should I be worried ... I don't have much corals... Few SPS frags and Zoas... Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks !

I wouldnt be to worried, having ZERO phosphate is where problems starts happening. If you want you can dose a bit of nitrates to raise it, or cut back on the photoperiod of your fuge.
 
Ok. Thanks. I will cut down the photoperiod.
