Convinced of a link between GFO and Cyano (and not the good kind)

You'll still have to siphon the cyano out as it appears, if it does.

The key is keeping phosphate out of the water column in the long run. I'm finding it easier to dose Foz Down, it's a lot less hassle than GFO and I can instantly tweak the dosing to match my feeding schedule.

So is your filter sock just in the water or do you have flow of some sort running through it?

I have a CPR 4 inch sock holder mounted inside the sump with a maxijet 600 pumping sump water into it.
The dosing tube drips into the filter sock.
