Phospahte is 1.2???? If that is true it is super high and very problematic. We usually strive for Phosphate readings below 0.10--ideally .03.

as well might check for a copper, make sure your temps are correct

Tell us more about your setup. How old is it? What size, what filtration, lighting, etc? Have you done anything different or changed anything recently?
