I recently looked at what I believe is cyano under a microscope and I was hoping you guys could confirm it is indeed cyano. Thoughts?

You don't really need the microscope to id this bacteria... its usually red sometimes green or yellow, and the way to test it is to just turkey bastor and blow on it if it just floats away easy then you have cyano. If you have just a small amount usually it will disappear on its own, just keep up with your regular maintenance.
