You may be giving them even more minerals that they thrive on.

How so ? Should I only change less ?? Or what should and can I do to stop it ? Drive me nuts to see brown sand instead of white like it suppose to be ....

Google brown algae. Nitrates aren't the only thing that cyanobacteria thrives on.

Ya I have googled it but also don't understand all the weird lingo hahaha... Should I only do small water changes or what should I be doing to stop and never get it again
You can only contain it at this point. Don't overfeed or you'll make it worse. I've also heard that bristlenose plecos will control it a bit.
