Hello Just wondering for those that may have had a ICP test done before. do they base their recommendations off the size of my tank. 160 gallons total water volume. Just seems that first dose would be way too much to add at once but maybe im wrong. looking for advise

We have detected a lack of iodine.
A Iodine dose can have the following benefits for your aquarium:
- Improves overall health of SPS corals and macroalgae
- Promotes metabolic processes in the reef aquarium
- Can be helpful against parasites and inhibit their reproduction
To restore the natural value, please refer to our recommended dosage.
We recommend the corrective dosage be carried out over 2 days. For the first day the dosage should be 6.06ml. On the last day please use 1.21ml.
We recommend a daily maintenance dose of 0.73ml. If this dose is very low, then this can be alternatively be dosed weekly (daily dose x7).

I would assume they're basing it off the size of your tank. I dose about 12.5ml of iodine every 2 weeks on my 200-gallon system, so I think the recommendation is in-line.
