Anyway, don't want to go too far off topic here but curious what you think about your Cyano and what you're doing.

EDIT: I turned my skimmer back on for the first time in MONTHS. dare I do a water change? or run GMO? I'm afraid dinos will come back. Those are what I think triggered my Dino outbreak originally to battle an algae problem.
I to did the dirty method, I managed the cyano with a turkey baster until I was confident the dinos were gone, then I did a chemiclean treatment to get rid of the cyano and it has never returned. I keep my po4 at .02 to .06 and nitrate at 5 ppm.
