Can someone please help me i had a lor of corals deaths unexpectedly, my tank is 7 months old. So i sent in an icp test.

The test camr back that i have aluminum, and iron. Aluminum is 22, and iron is 2. And my iodine is 22. I did the triton test. How bad is that?

I do not see any reason for coral deaths based on those values, and I'd look for other reasons. Can you describe the tank in more detail?

You might benefit from a trace element supplement, but if the tank is getting fish foods and some normal water changes, it is likeyl getting enough trace elements to not cause deaths.
