RED CYANO breakout!!

[reefstinger]

Ok I was thinking I need to get a GFO reactor and add to my sump , will this control the red cyano?

These help-
-nutrient control, limit feeding & do so slowly
-sufficient & effective skimming
-sufficient flow, in all areas of the tank
-regular & adequate maintenance/water changes
Some would add limited lighting, but if you've got corals that may be difficult.

What's the age of the tank? Maintenence schedule? Nutrient export method?

I would recommend cleaning the sand bed and do a couple large water changes. Use a powerhead to blow off the cyano and syphon it out with water changes.

When is the last time you changed your di resin?
