Black Ciano
 

I have a really bad Ciano problem....I heard that their is a snail or a fish or something that feeds off the stuff....can someone please tell me what they are called so I can go buy one asap!!!


Or if anyone knows of another way of getting ride of the stuff!!!

ew i don't think anything eats it. but a gravel vac and persistance will work to conquer it. and it's cyano

Thanx for the spelling correction....This stuff is quite annoying it keeps growing on my corrals and everything, grow's over my Zoo's and polyps I just got to get ride of the stuff!!!

This cyano people talk about what does it look like? Why does everyone hate it?

It looks like green slime, and can be stringgy. People hate it because it looks terrible and sufficates your corals.

Best way I foud for getting rid of it was getting a bigger skimmer and over skim, along with sucking it out of the tank with a siphon.

Oh geez. That stuff is all over my tank! It doesnt seem to go away no matter how much I skim or take out! Well at least I only have only one coral(devils Hand). I think I will leave it for now. Its FOWLR for me. Thanks for the picture Invigor.

So does it eventually go away? How does it develop or get into a tank system?
