physically remove it, use filter socks on your drains(if you don't) and change daily, reduce your photo-period, your PO4 and NO3 are zero because the cyano is exporting it, reduce feeding, continue kalk and keep the PH up, alk about 10dkh(raise it slowly)

Before I moved I had bad cyno as well and I got rid of it by decreasing photo period for 3-4 days also reduced feedings and increased my w/c's Also manual removal of cyno during w/c about 1 month later things were starting to look really good. never add chemicals if u don't have to I mean w/c do the same thing
