looking for suggestions, but I think I assumed a bad thing. I thought that higher phosphates were only bad for corals...

We added a foxface and powder blue tang to our tank tonight, and now reading it seems its not a good environment for them.

Last phosphate test was .72.

Reefmat, Skimmer, and UV Light - all I can think of to do is a fairly aggressive water change.

I certainly do not want to kill two new fish. Feeling pretty dumb right about now.
 
You could run some chemipure or comparable to bring the phosphate down. With those fish I would be more concerned about a quarantine system being in place.
