My tank is now a few weeks old. I used live everything...
10gal tank
10lbs of live rock
1 1/4 inches of live sand
Just yesterday, I noticed a film of burgundy colored stuff... Which I now know is cyano, now, it is a mound of cyano about 1/4 inch deep, and 1 inch in diameter...
Is this just part of the cycling process?
If so, will it simply go away once cycling is complete??
If it is not part of the cycle... HOW DO I STOP IT?!? Lol. I've seen horrifying picture of tanks over-run by Cyano...
I'm so puzzled :ugh:
