I feel like the nitrates are high but I realized that I don't know what I'm talking about. Is it just the difference between the Hanna and Salifert tests?

It's my first tank and it's new. Cycle took a month, then I added the single clownfish and it's been a month since then.

Nitrates are good up to 20 ppm, corals benefit from them. Its nitrites that you need to be cautious of rising, that kills inverts and corals. All else seems good to me! Welcome to the hobby
