Cyano - battling for 6+ months

[nyc_love]

I added a second Maxspect Gyre 280 pump on the other side of the tank and flow overall is very good now. Could be a random coincidence but I started using Selcon every day with feeding back in April and the Cyano started right around then as well. Don't think it's related but there is at least one post on Reef2Reef where someone had Cyano start when adding Selcon and then go away when they stopped so worth a try at least. Another thing I am going to try is changing the filter sock every Monday and Thursday vs just every Thursday. But yeah, the Cyano in my tank is VERY aggressive

Any and all tips welcomed!!!

I noticed it looks like you have gha also. It would seem to me you must have high nutrient levels for it to grow. Thoughts? Or am I seeing incorrectly? I am having a similar problem

Extreme Water Clarity and Cyano Eradication, Made Easy!

For clear water why not ozone? I understand that it may not help with the cyano. Never dosed ozone, always used activated carbon now removed for HLLE Head and Lateral Line erosion in a hepatus and can be treated with iodine

I did this as well and it worked well for me.
