Thanks all !!!! Is this chem clean ok for fish and coral? Ill try siphoning everyday into a net and re use water. When clean tank looks great but this stuff looks horrid. Ill keep you all posted on how I get on
Do not re use the water. Over feeding leads to un eaten food which leads to high phosphates in the water. Thats what cyano bacteria eats, as well of living off your light. If you dont have photosynthetic coral you can try the 3 day of darkness rule, after siphoning out the majority of the cyano. Replace 30% to 50% the water with ro/di water. Fyi If you top off with tap water that also contains phosphates. I am also battling the cyano and got the majority of it out.
