My tank is 29 gallons and turned 3 months today. Only fish are 2 clowns. Water changes are roughly every 2 weeks using imagitarium sea water and topping tank off with distilled water. I have added chemi pure blue to the HOB and added chemi clean once. The question is the best way to remove the cyano? Vacuuming? I am going switch to mixing my saltwater using distilled water because I don’t have an RODI system. Any thing that could address the issue also feeding once a day gonna switch to every other day.
 
fairly small tank, you should do them weekly at around 20% per change IMO. Distilled water isnt ideal, but better than tap by a lot. You are in the ugly phase, there is not really too much you can do about it, dose some beneficial bacteria, make sure you are not overfeeding, and do not dose cleaning products like chemi clean and chemi pure, your tank is new and will need time to balance out, you can dose some microbacter clean, dr tims eco balance or similar if you want though.
