We can only test for Dissolved Inorganic Phosphorus (DIP), aka orthophospahte, aka PO4. Systems also have Dissolved ORganic Phosphorus (DOP) which is used by corals and algae and Particualte Organic Phosphorus which can be used by corals. When phosphorus is limited nuisance algae almost always outcompetes corals so keeping a very low or zero PO4 hurts corals more than algae.

Increased dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations in sea water have been linked to a reduction of the temperature threshold at which corals bleach, however, the mechanism underlying this change is not known. This phenomenon is now explained in terms of increased phosphatase activities...

Yeah, it's just counterintuitive. You have algae and therefore phosphates so increase your phosphates to help your coral grow without turning the tank into a mess.We can only test for Dissolved Inorganic Phosphorus (DIP), aka orthophospahte, aka PO4. Systems also have Dissolved ORganic Phosphorus (DOP) which is used by corals and algae and Particualte Organic Phosphorus which can be used by corals. When phosphorus is limited nuisance algae almost always outcompetes corals so keeping a very low or zero PO4 hurts corals more than algae.

It took me years to understand that algae thrives in low nutrient environments. Bacteria and algae use nutrients but algae has the benefit of being able to use sunlight. If your tank has no corals in it i would turn the lights off and let the nutrients raise to acceptable levels and dose bacteria. After the bacteria is healthy it will out compete problem algae. Then it's amino's and always remember sps means STABILITY PROMOTES SUCCESS. that goes for everything: lighting, salinity, temp, alk, calcium, nitrates, phosphates ph etc. the more stable the better. If you need to correct anything do it over a week not in a day.
