You guys need to spread some of the luck and send it my way. My tank is overrun with cyano. I've tried everything I can think of, and it just keeps coming back for more. I've got a set of filter cylinders on order from Lifreef so that I can run a phosphate sponge and carbon round the clock

And it that doesnt work....:frustrat:

do what i did lower your light time and get a tooth brush and brush your rock..and do a water change.....thats what i did...

That's a temp change tho. U also have to seriously cut back on feedings. Get the shyt off all LR and substrate. Check all params, it's not and easy algae to beat. There are selveral trial and errors I did. I think it came down to doing everything I read in the net and then some.

Lowering the light can help work, cyanobacteria stores food :( but water are your best bet because you need to remove its food source, also make sure that the water your using is low in silicate, siphoning always worked for me, everyday till its gone
