Very informative. I'm having a cyano problem too, and I will definitely start rinsing out my frozen mysis. At first, I thought the "juices" would be good for any filter feeders in the tank. But now that I know I'm adding phoshates, I will definitely take more care. I hope that helps my situation.

I just make sure they are on when I am home so I get to enjoy it.
