To balance the nutrient for plants absorption, I need to add the Potassium (actually I had tried the ADA Brighty K, is really highly recommended using it.). BTW, what is the meanning of IMO and IMHO? because I am still new to these short form.

So, is it safe to say that you don't dose much of NO3 and PO4 since you are feeding your fish quite heavily (with enough bioload)? The only thing left is Potassium and trace elements. About the algae that you had, brown algae is normal for newly setup tank (otto good at this). Green spot algae (GSA) related to phosphate, and hair algae related to CO2, IMHO.
As standoyo said IMO=In My Opionion, IMHO=In My Humble Opinion, I use this for expressing my own opinion about something, other may or may not agree with it, but it is just to say in a polite way.

I must say I am a big supporter of anything that is good and working for me. If there is 'ABC' brand of products, that is good for me, I will also support it.
