The lighting basically hides the issue, doesn't really resolve it at all. Cyano, being a bacteria issue is pretty much going to be a "what's feeding it?" problem. It'll often balance out if caused with a recent tank move or disturbance as you've kicked up a lot of organics/bacteria food. Skimming, carbon/GFO, patience. Flow will spread it but it'll also allow your mechanical and chemical filtration access to the particles. That's pretty much why patience is the most important; as long as it's not irritating your livestock too badly you're only dealing with esthetics.
