I’m battling cyano and I thought I had a good plan of attack. I have significantly reduced the amount of food, and increased the amount of water changes I’m doing daily. The cyano is persistent. I just checked my TDS for the fresh water (ready to mix) and it’s reading 12-14 TDS. is it possible that this is causing part of my problems? I’ve ordered replacement cartridges regardless, I’m just trying to figure this out. I’m very hesitant to use any chemicals to remove the bacteria, I want to root the problem out at the source.
I do have a thriving refugium. I culled out some chaeto a few months ago and that’s when the cyano started. The chaeto is growing great again (finally), but the cyano remains.
