Yes Sir cyano in my tank I am Just increase power moments and waiting for red slime remove come.U too dam now its a epidemic
come to think of it, shit, that's the answer!!! We're all using h20. Pull it out and the slime has to stop.Are any of you red cyano guys using the same chemicals, salt, food, or have a common new element added to tank?
Thanks Hein. It won't help my situation as I'm already doing all that, but maybe it'll helps one of the many others on here having issues.yes, having cyano is no fun at all. I got it 2 months for my tank and below what I did. it seems working for me. now don't see them in a month.

Hope this helps.
Oh chicago is full of extra poop, but that's nothing new. If I wasn't confidant of my rodi system and filter changes I could suspect the incoming water. I watch the tds when making every batch of water and the output tds never gets to 1. TDS at the exit of my rodi membrane is 2, either 0 or 1 after the frst DI canister, always dead zero after the second.Maybe it is the H2O
For real.
Maybe The Chicago water has extra
GFO can take months or more to get po4 down to a low level depending on how much may be stuck to your rocks.I used chemiclean in my 55, worked great. Then I moved everything into my 120 and after about 3 =-4 months it came back. Started a GFO about a week ago. Using phosphate out. Anyone know how long it takes to work? I have been taking out LR every couple days and clean off the red slim with a tooth brush so I don't pollute the tank. I use a 5 stage RO/DI but I seem to always get between 70-100 PP on my TDS-3 meter. Is that my problem?
Every ppm above zero is some chemical element or compound you're adding to the tank. Liekly it's something cyno or other pests will feed on. Gettign your TDS down will only helpmake the reef easier to keep. Your membranes should be taking most of the ppm out of the water. I'd suspect your cabron block may have been exhausted and let chlorine past to your membrane. Chlorine kills membranes quickly.I'm getting 105, so now do I change out the filters or look for a better unit? I do not recall ever getting close to zero..
What do you think?
