Circulate and clean!
Voila! no cyano.
HTH
I have three powerheads. What do you mean about strtegically placing the powerheads?
And as for a skimmer i just replaced a Prizm protien skimmer with a CPR BAK PAK IIR, and it's on 24/7, it seems like the areas were there is cyno are on the bottom rocks were its almost imposible to get circulaton thru there.

Thanks
