They opened for me but I reposted the last one. I can get it tested at my LFS and see what they come up with.

Still can't open the attachment. Are you downloading it using the site or are you posting a link. Just curious, by any chance could the water you're mixing have chlorine in it?

Alright, so I was looking at the parameters and issues you have and I have some questions and suggestions:

The parameters look fine, but I think your temperature is a little low. I try to keep my tank at around 77-79 degrees constantly. I would check the following:

David mentioned the water source and I am as well. What do you use for your water source, tap, RODI, pre-made water.....

If you are running tap or using an old RODI unit, I would check for chloramines as these can build up if your have not changed the filters in your RODI unit or just using tap. Get some Amquel or something to neutralize the Chloramines in your tank.

You mentioned that you've lost some fish, how soon did you lose them to when you started your tank? You mentioned some tripped breakers, were they from something else in the house or around the breaker location of your tank outlet? I'm wondering if you have any stray voltage in your tank. If you have one, get a voltmeter and check for stray voltage.
