That level of nitrate won't harm fish or soft corals. Nitrate tests often seem to be inaccurate, for that matter. This article covers nitrate in detail:

In addition I will suggest getting a good test kit. LaMotte Nitrate is the one I found easier to use and one of the best. Salifert also seems to be a popular one for Nitrate.
