I have had trouble with cyanobacteria in the past in my reef tank...After trying to vaccum all that I could out of the tank, I reduced the amount of time the lights stay on each day.That didn't work. Then I tried a medicine called Chemi-clean by Boyd industries(it says it is reef safe & safe for all inverts, desirable macro algaes, nitrifying bacteria and fish). The tank was clean in a week,and remained so for over a month...BUT...now suddenly I see small patches of the red cyano goo forming on rock edges. I really hate to keep dosing the tank it is starting to really look good with lots of coral growth. Does anyone have any other suggestions??? Please let me know!!!
