Moving fish from quarantine tank to display tank

Hey gang, I’m moving a clown fish from a quarantine tank with zero phosphates to my main tank that has .06 phosphates.
How big of a concern is this thanks

I think you'll be ok.

Maybe acclimate him for a bit?

As I always do, acclimate it to the display as if you just purchased it focusing on salinity and even PH match. You dont have to get extensive, focus on temperature and salinity match prior to release

As said, temp and salinity are most important. Phosphate has a minimal effect on fish.

I would say zero hazard. There is no way that .05 ppm of phosphates will bother the fish. The main sources of shock would be temperature and salinity. And both of those are easy to deal with. And a BIG BIG difference in ALK might be an issue but I doubt that you would ever run into that,
