Hi guys, has anyone used Cyano RX and it's not worked for them? Iv followed the instructions and used it 3-4 times in my aquarium and syphoned out the cyano everytime as well as doing water changes but Everytime cyano keeps coming back.

Anyone have any ideas how they battled away their cyano? What's the easiest most effective and quickest way

.....are there any specific Critters or crabs or copapods that could take care and eat away the cyano.

Just a heads up it is mostly only growing on the highest rock work to the surface and a 2 low rocks on the corner of my tank. And the high rock areas I have a lot of high flow hitting against them. Iv also added a tub of beneficial bacteria from evolution aqua. And will be adding more this weekend to counter the bad bacteria.

Can you post a picture so that we can see? Many folks mix up cyano for dino's, a visual of whats happening will really help us.

I'm sorry that looks more like dino's to me. There is a lot of info about that on this website, I guess this is a good place to start, first you have to identify the type of dino. Good luck
