To add my story,

Well, couple days ago I had a breakout of Cyano. Took over the entire sand in 2 days. I am now on 32 hrs of lights out, with more skimming, and the sand is just about clean again. Amazed at how fast it grows, and disperses.

I went from 2 T5 no reflectors to a 4 tube TEK light, and added 3 fish at the same time. The added light and bioload I think is what kickstarted the Cyano. 2 more days and rock/sand should be nice and pretty again
