JohnL's 20 Gallon Nano Reef

Which test did you get Josh?

I did the Microbiome snapshot. It looks like they are running a sale right now.

 
I cleaned the glass so I took a few photos 📸

I use a Tropic Marin floating hydrometer which reads 1.025 I wonder why it's showing low?
 
I use kent lugol's iodine randomly (because salifert iodine test is always unreadable to me) and it was a little high on my last ICP, so I guess that iodine works.

Did you ever use Brightwell Hydrat-MG or an old bottle of Kent Tech-M for magnesium? I ask because your Lithium is high and that was once considered the secret ingredient in them that killed Byropsis but could never be substantiated.
 
1.025 sg at 77F is around 33.2 PSU.
1.0242 sg at 77 is 32.1 PSU so within margin of error I would guess.

So, trying to understand their recommendations.

2 doses of 0.15 ml Iodine. 3 weekly 20% water changes.

Then what? Another ICP test?
