If I knew for a fact it was 0.04, I wouldn't try to chase numbers and lower it to 0.03. And as long as you have fish and are feeding enough, there will always be enough trace phosphorus in the water for hard corals.

My point is that if phosphates are a problem, it will read above 0, and if it doesn't and I'm having a problem, then phosphates aren't the problem.
