Switched salts, what should i keep Nitrate and phos at?

[steallife904]

Switched to Brighwell Neo salt six and have to say the numbers are pretty much right where the factory says they are. After a few weeks of testing and weekly water changes my calc is 440, ALK 8dkh and Mag 1400. With those levels where should i shoot to keep my nitrate and phosphate? Right now I'm getting 0 or no measurement on both which has been what i have had for years. Had some receding issues with a could LPS though so wondering if i need to get the nitrate and phos up.

NO3 5-10
Po4 anything measurable.

YMMV along with opinions

I'd personally start with NO3 5-10 ppm and PO4 .03 ppm - .08 ppm. Then let your coral tell you. If they are pale you probably need to increase your PO4 a little.

thanks guys. the NO3 and PO4 are so new to me. I have pretty much always had both at 0 and thought it needed to be 0. Now running with more LPS that doesn't seem to be the case.
