It's not loading for me but battling any type of Dinos with 0 phos and nitrates is impossible. They thrive in those conditions. You need to find a way to dose some back into your tank.

would dosing cheato gro or seachem flourish achieve that?
I would guess so but IMO I would feed extra as if you were feeding fish or something. I’ve heard mixed opinions on algae growth formulas to increase nutrients because dinos likely feeds off those same nutrients better than processed fish food ;Dead

If you don't want the hassle of mixing potassium nitrate and whatever the ingredient for phos I use neonitro and neophos and I'm happy with it. I agree with PBnJ on feeding extra but don't feed WAYY too extra because then you get an excess of organics that might not help the issue.

I used neo phos/nitro when I was battling mine now I think about it. I still have my 2L bottles of each!
