I've been battling with a cyano problem with a month now and have finally found a way to get rid of it. Put a filter sock on the drain and scrub everything while having all power heads on full. And cleaning sock every 30 min.
Also used a power head to blow off all buildup on rocks.

No cyano for 3 days now

supergrape looks awesome man. I mounted all my corals so close together and unfortunately the supergrape I got from you has been light-starved for ages. Just has to survive a little longer and then I'll be happy to colour it up half that nice.

Besides the fans... did you feel the 1w LEDs were cutting it?

You're describing my current rock-curing regimen to a T =) I am using a very fine mesh bag and it requires a cleaning several times a day but it's paying off. I also use a long hose with an mj1200 on the end of it... stuffed right into the sock so you can calmly vacuum as long as you want. Be good for cyano removal too.
