Yep, get the alk up. Keep your water circulating rapidly (if you can, point
the powerheads near the cyno) and do larger water changes. Say, 15-20
gallons...
That's a start...

Subject: Cyno problem
I have had a slight cyno problem for the past two weeks. I have a
55 gallon
tank, and did a 12 gallon water change two weekends ago, a 3 gallon
during
last week, and another 3 gallon over the past weekend.
The temp is 77, specific gravity 1.024. Nitrates <1ppm. Alkalinity
2.5meq/L. I know, I know, I need to get my alk up alittle... I'm
working on
it!
I added two more powerheads to the tank when I did the 12 gal water
change.
I have not added any additives for about 2 weeks now (not after the
12 gal
water change). I've just been dripping kalk continuously (from an
RO/DI
unit) and adding KH builder during the day.
Any ideas on how to get rid of the cyno?
Thanks...
Tim
