Cannot get rid of cyano!

[Nate]

Well I really hope your cyano clears up.

I too have used chemi-clean... In fact it's in my glovebox. When cyano happens to one of my customers tanks, they want it gone now. Instead of saying itll be gone in 3-4 weeks with me doing some dedicated water changes and adjusting chemistry, perhaps adding a power head. I will sometimes just add chemi clean to get rid of it, all the while knowing the I will have to adjust the problem that was causing it in the first place in the future. However the customer is happy for the meantime and I can fix the issue after.

Marlo, please keep up with the water changes. It will help in the long run.

Chemi clean can sometimes be like a bandaid fix. Not really fixing the problem causing it.

The only other thing that I can think of that could make a difference is that I have changed everyone of my 50 tanks off of nls foods as I find them to be really dirty. I am now feeding 95% hikari both frozen and pellets (marine a, marine s, as seaweed extreme) and have had significantly less brown algae on the glass, and less outbreaks of cyano.

Water changes are your friend.
