Why do I feel like I'm being attacked everytime I post something??????

Because you're posting stuff telling people what to do
And it's often advice that more experienced fish keepers believe is inaccurate and even harmful for newbies to follow.
One successful method of participating here is to make one of two posts:
A post starting a thread in which you ask a question.
A post you make to answer someone else's question, in which you are humble about your answer and are clear about where your advice comes from, what your experience is, etc. be really honest. Something like "I've seen people recommend A and B, I have 6 months experience with B after having seen it suggested by (specific source). My own experience has (your personal result). But I get that others have other experiences."
Also be very careful about giving advice on a method or product whose chemical processes you can't completely explain.
Starting a thread in which you say "hey everybody, remember to do - when you -" isn't going to be welcomed.
To be frank in your first post you come off as a) sort of a bosssypants and (since you're recommending something the vast majority of this community knows isn't really a thing) you accidentally sound like B) a noob trying to sound like an expert. I'm sure you're neither that's just an easy interpretation from your OP.
The nice thing is, this community is very forgiving of newbie bossypants-es. It's a sign of passion and we all get it wrong sometimes!
So stick around, read more than you write, and stick to what you've researched from multiple sources and experienced yourself (with a humble tone).
