Once you get it settled, you'll have to play in it much less, and look at it a lot more.
I just hope that time comes soon. I always feel like I am doing things the wrong way even when everything is all opened up and seems normal. It's like I can't even tolerate one small bit of food being left on the substrate without removing it. Maybe its just because of my keenness to perfection when it comes to the tank.

How long has your tank been running for? I'm sorry if you've posted this, but how big is the tank? What are you using for flow?

I found my 55 settled around the 9 month mark and is my favorite tank atm. My 180 is still driving me crazy, been set up since March this year. Tanks are really like babies in their first year, takes a long time for them to mature and that's what keeps me keep the 180 going, knowing at some point things will turn around.
