So I just started my fourth week of Vodka dosing and Im starting to experience some Cyano. I'm at 2.1 ML's using the Vodka Distilled Graph recommended amounts. I have a barebottom 65 with a 20 gallon sump. The Cyano is dusting my Powerheads and starting to appear in small patches on my rock. I am running two Mp 10's and two Koralia Evo 1050 with a mag 9.5 return so flow isnt the problem.

Question is should I cut back or stay the course? Ive been thinking of adding MB7 to the mix and possibly vitamin C since Ive seen people make pretty good combo's of the three with good results. Ive read of people stopping for a week or two then restarting with MB7 and the Cyano disappears. The Vitamin C interests me because of what it can do for Zoanthids.

Any idea's or thoughts are appreciated.
 
cutting back will not make it go away, when i vodka dosed I had cyano issues, It has been 2 weeks since I stopped completely and I have cyanno still, I am going to try the mb7 to see if it clears up, I have read + things about it getting rid of cyano. I also dose daily with marine c, but I had done that since day one of my tank.
 
Are you planning on using the recommended dosage for the MB7? How much vodka were you dosing and what size tank?
 
You should throw in the MB7 now. The cyno won't go away for some time now, and the MB7 is helpful in this process. Pretty crazy that at 2.1mls your seeing it already though.
