Every time i check my sg it says something different like 1.015 and 1.032.
What is the problem?

If your using a Plasic one ,Make sure you bang it flat on the counter to get all the little air bubbles off the Gage.

Ensure there is no flow interfering with the readings. Be sure after eah time you use it, you clean it since dissolved salt will stick to the unit.

Unfortunately hydrometers can be very inaccurate. It has to do with the temp changes during production. If you know someone with a refractometer, ask them to calibrate it for you. Your best bet would be to invest a bit of money and purchase your own refractometer. This is a piece of equip that is well worth the money for anyone keeping saltwater, as it is used all the time and is the most accurate reading available.
