I not so recently sent away ICP tests for my 2 tanks. It took a bit over a month, but I finally got the results back yesterday.
My main takeaways are my trace elements are way out of whack on both tanks. Looking for some advice on how to deal with the red and yellow results of the test. Some things like the oddly high mg in the 75 gallon I should be able to slowly bring down with water changes. The water change water is 1440 for mg.
My normal salt is instant ocean reef crystals, but due to supply issues I have a box of Fritz red box. I know not great to switch salts, but with all the flooding and routes up here being closed it was all I could get. I did order a couple boxes of reef crystals, but who knows when they will come.... anyways.
IM25
Mostly LPS with a couple SPS.
bit over 2 years old.
Weekly 5gal water changes.
75 gal
I have 7 SPS frags
9 months old
15gal water change every other week.
