Currently have:
2 clowns
2 damsels
2 chromis
1 yellow tang
Few crabs and snails

I feed 1/2 cube mysis and
1/2 cube brine
Strips of seaweed once in a while

Is this too much? Currently having issues with gha and cyano.
Ty in advance!

That should be sufficient as for portion. Add what can be consumed in a minute or so.
consider adding foods such as
Hikari marine cuisine
LRS fish frenzy
small plankton

1 cube a day for 7 fish doesn't seem like too much to me. I feed 2 cubes and pellets each day, then sometimes I feed flake as well for my 9 fish.
At 1 cube a day if you are having nutrient issues IMO you need to find a way to handle the nutrients and not feed less.
 

When to mix up fish meal: When was the last time you tried a different brand of food for your reef?
