^^ Yeah I was quite happy with my tank before ZEO and still happy but not happy about the cyano. It REALLY drives me nuts.

I still don't know if its the ZEO making my corals look nicer or if they would have looked this nice anyways. Before ZEO, the tank was starting to look pretty good on its own. So its hard to say what is going on exactly but I am pretty sure the cyano is from the ZEO because I have never had it before this.

It's all about promoting the bacteria you want to grow.

ZeoStart, ZeoFood, Coral Vitalizer, Amino Acids and a couple more products act as food for both corals and the bacteria. Cyano is a bacteria so you will be feeding it as well.

Ok, so this is then something that I will always be feeding? Does that not mean it will be pretty hard to rid the tank of it?

Im not so sure that a trade off I can make.

Hmm could this cyano bloom be part of a secondary cycle that a tank would undergo while the Zeo reactor matures?
