I still do water changes and guess what... cyano on the bottom ... Mind you not as much as before but still you would think that without nutrient it would have starved but no still there and I suck it out as soon as it appears so ????

Interesting. I have about 1.5-2" of CaribSea Seaflor aragonite. I have a high bioload and nitrates at about 50 for many months. I have a few patches of cyno growing on my live rock. I always thought it was because of my poor water quality but I see that people with excellent water quality can also get this. I do stir my sand every couple of months.
