The product that you are referring to is called "Substrate Gold".  It does 
work very well.  I am using it on all my plant tanks with great success.

Karl Schoeler is the gentleman producing it.  He is active on this list so 
I'm sure he's seen the thread and will probably respond to the original

P.S. Karl has also propagated more varieties of plants than just about 
anybody else in the country, so he knows what he's talking about when it 
comes to substrate additives and stuff.
