Cyano help

Obviously this has been hashed over a million times, but I am taking a shot here that someone might have the magic bullet........
I have a five month old 60 gallon cube.....only 5 fish (2 clowns, a ywg, a chromis, and a 6 line wrass).
I used BRS eco rock only
I have plenty of flow (MP40)
Good Reef Octopus Skimmer rated for 130 gallons
I have a brand new 5 stage RO/DI from BRS that i use for my salt mixing and top off
I use Red Sea Coral Reef Pro salt.
I use Rod's food and feed once a day or once every other day
I change 15% water weekly

I cant get rid of the cyano. I use a toothbrush for the rocks, I siphon the sand....it keeps coming back. I've have a Radion and I have cut back to like 7 hours a days. I can't seem to do anything.....I'm so frustrated. Please help!
