What fixture? Does it have individual reflectors?

Should have 0 for ammonia, and your phosphates are pretty high. Are you using RO/DI water? If so, what is the TDS?
 
It's just a cheap fixture from Amazon but yes it has individual reflectors and I use rodi water with 0 Tds and I was planning on a water Chang tonight for ammonia and phosphate
