ULM ICP Results (No Water Changes in 10 months!)

[JordanM]

Hello,

Per ATI's recommendations these are the values that are out of normal. Should I consider chasing any of these values or are they fine? ATI recommends that I dose the Manganese.
120 Gallon ULM Tank, No water Changes in 10 Months, No Fuge.

Results:
Element, Value, Ideal Value, Difference
Sulfur 990.2 mg/l 808.8 mg/l +181.4 mg/l

Bromine 76.32 mg/l 58.90 mg/l +17.42 mg/l

Strontium 9.24 mg/l 7.03 mg/l +2.21 mg/l

Manganese u. 0.0 0.88 µg/l -0.88 µg/l

Aluminium 46.95 µg/l 0.09 µg/l +46.86 µg/l

Also to note is that these results were sent in just before turning on my calcium reactor. I want to see if the next test I send in will put these values more in check if these elements are being dosed into the tank from the break down of the ReBorn SPS skeletons.

All in all im pretty happy with the results and expected a lot more elements to be depleted after not performing a water change to the tank in 10 months.

After getting my ATI ICP test I ordered the Manganese and about 24 hours later it did seem that I had a bit more polyp extension on my SPS and my euphyllia seemed to be opened up a bit more as well. Was it a fluke not sure but I do add 1ml weekly to my 240 now. I'll be sending off another water sample at the end of the month so we will see what it says. Tank has never had a water change and has been up and running for years.
