Here are my results:
Ati basicaly reconmended that I dose iodine. I've never added Iodine in the past. Overall things are foing fairly well in the tank. I dose 2 part with bsr dosing pumps and i periodically add acropower. I had a long standing issue with some bubble algae that slowely kept getting worse so i dosed vibrant for about a month. I recently stopped, bc the bubble algae totaly went away. I run carbon and gfo in a reactor. I've never had nitrates or phosphates as high as they are now. I would like to lower them a bit. Other then that Im not sure what to make of the rest of the results. Any recommendations or thoughts are appreciated.

Those are A+ icp results. Iodine will deplete in a few days so you would have to do some aggressive dosing, which most people dont do. If I were you, i would just do a water change as per the percentage you would like to reduce your NO3 and PO4 and monitor.

Thanks for the input @FactoryKTMmotocross46 . Its good to be reassured. Heck i was alarmed that my nitrates and phosphorus was higher then usual but the more i look around that almost seems to be popular these days. Ive never really dosed trace ellements or tested for them really so I didnt know if the iodine or the others that were a little off were a problem. I figured they couldn't be a big problem since the tank seems ok.
