You should be able to blow cyano off with a turkey baster. It should peel off in little sheets. It will accumulate tiny air bubbles as well.
I've been getting quite a bit lately myself, and discovered A., my Tunzes were almost plugged and B., my bulbs were due for replacement. So far no cyano growth since remedying these two items. I'm only running partial lighting this week to acclimate, but so far I've got no more cyano....

Hi Marko,
From what I could see of your tank the other night, you definitely have cyano. The overfeeding has put a lot of nutrients into your tank. Cyano has developed as a way of utilizing the extra nutrients. A turkey baster will blow the stuff off your corals, rock and sandbed, but you must be able to export it once it gets into your water column - either with serious skimming or by frequently cleaned mechanical filtration, or both. And, do several 25% water changes over the next few days to severely reduce the nutrients. HTH
