VERY high strontium levels.

My Triton ICP came back today claiming 2011 mg/l Strontium. First, should I believe this? Second, how are my corals alive if >15ppm is considered toxic to some things? Third, ways to reduce?


Anecdotally I have noticed my corals look much healthier with VERY high Ca levels (think 1000ppm). Could this be related?
