I have an all sps tank with some cyano (as identified by twillard's test). I wanted to try peroxide dosing (1ml/10gal) but am hesitant because I don't want it to harm any of my sps coral. Do you know if this treatment can change any of the tank parameters such as pH, PO4, NO3? I have read many posts on here and don't know if I am missing them but I didn't read any conclusive results is regards to what parameters it could alter or if any sps were harmed during any treatments.

I dosed H2O2 at that rate for 10 days and had no noticeable change of any parameters.
 
I don't think it will directly change any of those parameters, but if you kill organisms (cyano or other), you may well see some released nutrients as their dead bodies break down.
