First ever ICP

[Kingsley_Reef]

Got my first ICP results overall I’m happy with it but curious to other peoples take and opinion on how to move forward I plan on send in another around June

Backround:
-Tanks 4months running
-Test was taken before fish were transferred
-using instant ocean salt
-Test was also taken 24 hours after a 20% water change (20% biweekly)
-i currently dose nothing other then microbacter clean/7,phytoplankton

My questions:
-how to reduce Strontium (is it even worth chasing?)
-Phosphorus? I test pO4 twice a week and it is always around 0.03 and i always thought that was great should i really increase this?
-Nitrate I’ve always battled in previous tanks and this tank has not seen fish food at the time of test I always assumed my rodi could be contributing but my results are clean (brs 7stage) I just got a skimmer running on this tank now hopefully that’s the answer?
- minor elements :Molybdenum,Vanadium,Manganese,Iron I see I can easily buy and dose these my concern is is it worth it or eventually when I do need to start dosing to keep up all,cal,mag will they contribute???? I would like to eventually try the AFR dosing method but I have gallon each of BRS 2part still available from me past tank and hate to waste it


Thanks in advance

I think the strontium is fine.

I'd consider a trace element supplement, such as Tropic Marin A and K.

Alk needs, or will soon need, supplementing. So will calcium. I'd use a balanced alk and calcium method.

AFR would solve all of these issues at once.

Nothing else jumps out to me as an action.
