I've seen (and had) Cyano before, but this seems different. Long and stringy, VERY long.
Is this cyano, or something else?

increase the feeding as well?

Your tank looks awful clean, It’s been my experience running a tank to clean can cause cyano blooms.. I would also limit water changes but when doing them target syphon all the cyano you can. I had it for over a year in one of my tanks that I was running ULN.. nothing helped eradicate it until I dramatically increased feedings, of course it’s a balance you don’t want undesirable algae taking off in your tank.
 

DO YOU THINK TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCEMENTS ARE MORE HELPFUL OR HURTFUL TO REEFING?
