Here is a .pdf attached, should I take action to correct, not sure at which point certain levels are toxic? Thanks

FWIW, your email address is in the report. You might want to hide that somehow.

I'm not a big fan of the accuracy of this company, but with that said, I don't see what I would say is a substantial issue.

What particular elements or is like the whole test just not all that accurate? Anything small to correct should I dose someof the stuff that is low?

I deleted the attachment.

We discussed some issues here with the owner. He admitted some issues, like bromine not being correct, but in general, the data they show for NSW samples did not follow the known ratios of ions in seawater. Big things like calcium are likely close enough. Weird things like gallium or uranium being high are, IMO, probably just errors. I don’t recall if you had that, but some folks have.
