I am having problems with cyano and my skimmer is very finicky.. any solutions to cyano? I've tried chemi clean but it's Making my skimmer go nuts

 

[rockhead]

You need to keep skimmer off for a couple of days and let chemi do its job, also no carbon or gfo . I also found this out, not sure how much your feeding but try and cut back I only feed maybe 3x a week full Sps tank

Thanks I was actually running both carbon and gfo so I just shut it off

 

[rockhead]

Yes I use to, if you think about it what does carbon do? Just give the treatment some time to work

Tank is looking good man

 

[Darienreefs7]

Everything is doing well. Only problem is my skimmer won't tune and it's just putting too much water in.

 

[Darienreefs7]

I'm starting to get growth on corals and all new fish are doing well. Will update FTS later today.

 

[Darienreefs7]

Here's an updated FTS and some new pickups.
