LOL JP!! You're funny!! I know all about you men!!

Ok, here's what I'm doing and so far... knock on wood, cross fingers etc... it seems to be working...

On Day 1 (Monday), after the wc, I dosed 5.5mL Flourish Excel, 4mL of Flourish Iron, 10mL Flourish Potassium, 15mL Flourish Trace, 2mL Flourish and 25mL of KNO3 solution(increased solution to 2tsp/300mL distilled water).

On Day 2 I dosed 10mL Flourish Potassium and 25mL KNO3 solution.

On Day 3 (today) I dosed 10mL Potassium, 25mL KNO3, 5.5 mL Excel and 4 mL of Iron.

How does that sound? Day 4 will be Potassium and KNO3 again, and 2mL of Flourish.

Day 5 Potassium, KNO3, Iron and Excel

Day 6 Potassium and KNO3.

Day 7 water change day, start over.

Any comments?

Just wanted to let ya guys know that the new regime is working very well.

I have almost no algae now... yayyyyyyyy!!!! And the plants are growing much better.

Finally I can enjoy my tank again... tanks are supposed to be relaxing but everytime I looked at it I could feel my blood pressure going up!! LOL
Thanks for all your help!
