What test kits do you use are you sure you have no Nitrite, and Nitrate?
How old is your tank. What about flow is there enough flow/oxygen in your tank? Does not sound like a light problem to me. You PO4 is a bit high but should not kill things.

Are you sure your lights are T5's? 65w sounds like PC to me.

If they are PC's you don't have enough light.

PC I'm assuming that this is power compact. This is what I have. Sorry for misleading everyone quoting T5's. I though there were the same.

Does not look like bleaching to me it looks like a water quality issue.
How old and what kind of test kits do you run? I think your problem is there it is unusual to have that high a PO4 and no NO3

I'm running API Test Kits I have had them for 8 months plus however long they were on the shelf. I re-tested P04 and NO3 and have the same results. So is this a lighting issue, water quality or both?
