I do not dose it because ICP shows it is in the normal range. I do dose a number of other elements that are otherwise depleted, including: iron, manganese, molybdenum, vanadium and iodine. In a recent ICP-MS test from ati showed flourine, cobalt, and chromium are low so I'm thinking about adding these. But strontium seems ok just from reg water changes.
 
Once upon a time when Kent marine was popular I dosed Kent Marine Strontium & Molybdenum as well as Kent Marines Trace Elements (the blue stuff if I recall).

I'm not sure if it was helping but it didn't do any harm.
Yes. This was standard operating procedure in the early day of reefing.
