RD154: Treating Caitlin’s Reef to solve a Cyanobacteria issue

During a previous water change, I believe I may have killed the Randall Goby while siphoning the visible sandy areas of the tank. I never saw it after I was done, despite performing this task the exact same way for nearly a year. The sandbed got ugly a week later, and I still didn’t see the fish. Putting two and two together, it seems it perished and spiked the water in the process. Cyanobacteria was creeping into the system and I decided to use RedCyano Rx now before it got worse. After dosing and waiting four days, I did a 5g water change and that was all there was to it.

I'm glad to see the product worked well and the fish didn't react to it. Will keep this product in mind now that I've upgraded to a 75 g tank.

[@melevsreef]

A Randall goby.

Hi there. Have you eve6had any issues using this with your bigger reef tank as far as side effects on coral or fish? Thinking about using this but a little skeptical

[@melevsreef]

I’ve used it many times without incident in every tank I’ve run.

[@fishybizzness1592]

@melevsreef with incident? I believe you meant without. Lol
No issues with any coral? Thanks for the reply

[@melevsreef]

@@fishybizzness1592 thanks for catching that. Edited my reply. No, never lost any corals when killing off Cyanobacteria.

[@fishybizzness1592]

@melevsreef thanks for all the videos, I've learned alot from you along the way. And thanks for being honest and straightforward about your experiences, whether good or bad, it's very refreshing!

@melevsreef one more question, can I leave my uv on during treatment or should I turn it off? Thanks
