If you want to make a dent in your phosphates try running GFO (Granulated Ferric Oxide) in a phosban reactor like the Two Little Fishes reactor. I myself have been running a Rox brand GFO for quite some time now.
After just a little over a day with running the phosban reactor my levels have been cut in half and read 1.

Thanks for the tip.

I would unplug the reactor for a bit, I think you used a bit too much media. If you yank the phosphate out too fast you can shock the system and actually cause coral death.
