Default PO4 question

at tom barr's recommendation, I was told to dose 1/8 tsp. of PO4. I have fleet enema for PO4. my question is am I supposed to dose this for po4, or did he mean a different form of it? I am a bit confused on this matter because I thought that there is a difference in ammount I would be adding from using fleet instead of kh2po4. By chuck gadd's calculator, the ammount of po4 in kh2po4 I would add would be 2ppm for 1/8 tsp. and if I add 1/8 tsp. of fleet this is not the same ammount. Can some one tell me how much of the fleet I need to add to a 55 gal to get 2ppm of po4. thanks for the help,
John
