You left room for improvement.
With results like these [If they are to be trusted at all] You should be testing before each and every water change and this will be much more often than every two weeks.

I am assuming that you do NOT in fact have Nickle and Sodium in your tap water and you meant NiTrITe [NO2] & NItrAte [NO3].
There's more than enough to guess at in your posts already without you posting TrItes & TrAtes results as symbols for chemical elements in place of their chemical formulas .. You are doing neither you or us favors when you do that.
The most cost effective dechlor for you to switch to would be Safe by Seachem, It's the dry version of prime and is VERY economical when bought in bulk. Dechlor is not going to be optional for you if these results are accurate.

MR FreshySalty- I would just love to see pics of the 150 gallon lobster tank with 4 Pacu's in it. Can you post pics of it? I'm sure others here would absolutely love to see it as well. It sounds AWESOME. Those Pacu's must be really happy in there.
