Phos-Guard, or if you're scared of aluminum, then Rowa-Phos.

regular water changes
do not overstock the tank
agressive protein skimming
do not overfeed
grow macroalgae and harvest it on a regular bases
strain and rinse your frozen food before feeding
keep the mechanical filtration clean
use GFO media in a media reactor
