Looks fine to me. However, unless it's a new pond I'd be concerned with the
nitrite and ammonia. Looks like you dont have enough bacterial filtration.

I agree, unless the ammonia & nitrite tests were just a glitch, better get
salt in the pond to protect against brown blood disease and Amquel (or
similar) to detox the Ammonia. Other numbers are great.
