| Re: re.REDICULOUS cyano bacteria problem
photo period is the length of time. What type of water are you using? Tap water? if so that could be your culprit. I would get some Ro water and start making your water changes with that. Another thing you may want to consider is doing weekly water changes rather then once a month. Many small water changes are better then one huge water change. Even though in the end its the same amount of water. Do you have a skimmer? that may help as well get some nutrients out of the water that they cyano may be feeding on. hope this helps any.
