COMMENTS
The sequence is complete. Indeed, let s(n) be the sum of floor(sqrt(k)) for k from 1 to n. It is easy to verify that s(n^2+j), for 0 <= j < (n+1)^2-n^2, is equal to n(j+1) + n(4n+1)(n-1)/6, which is always divisible by n or by n/6 for n > 6. - Giovanni Resta, Mar 26 2014
EXAMPLE
2 is a term because floor(sqrt(1))+floor(sqrt(2)) = 1+1 = 2 is prime;
14 is a term because floor(sqrt(1))+ ... +floor(sqrt(14)) = 1+1+1+2+2+2+2+2+3+3+3+3+3+3 = 31 is prime.
MAPLE

Alternative program:

for n from 1 to q do for j from 1 to 2*n+1 do
a:=a+n; if isprime(a) then print(n^2+j-1); fi;
