It was a thread about freshwater cyano; and i didn't see anyone recommending adding phosphate. Basically, I saw 2 posters mentioning that low nitrate is one possible cause of cyano. In addition, one of the 2 guys mentioned that frequent water changes (i assume with tap water) made it worse for him. Seems reasonable. BTW: both posters who suggested that low nitrates are a possible cause of cyano are also Canreefers.
