Hydor to the rescue!
Well I have been struggling with cyano for a few months so I decided to crank up the flow.
90 Gallon Tank with: Pan World 50PX-X - 1110 GPH (Closed loop) Mag 9.5 - 950 GPH (Sump return) I had the Pan World on a closed loop with two outlets. Well, I shut off the left outlet and replaced it with a Hydor Koralia 4 (1200 GPH). So now I essentially have 2800 GPH in a 90g tank (31x turnover) ![]() HOPEFULLY this will help with the cyano.

Wouldnt hurt, as long as they are pointing and stirring up in the right direction. I have approx 2710 GPH in my 40L tank ~68x turnover and have never had any cyano in the tank. There is alot of flow in my tank and I get a chaotic flow and sometimes "tornadoes" form or edys but I have mostly SPS
