I've used the Red Slim Remover before but I turned off my skimmer. After 48 hrs I did a water change and turned the skimmer back on. The cyano went away but came back which of course didn't help the problem. Another thing to try is get yourself some Erythromycin (Maracin). It comes in packets now I believe...add one packet for every 30G of water...turn off your skimmer and remove carbon. After 48 hrs do a water change and replace carbon and of course turn the skimmer back on. This has also worked for me but again it came back. Allot of the things they sell you only masked the problem...doesn't help it any...just makes them go away for a little while.

Good Luck
