Its getting to the point where I might have to. I have been considering that a last resort after watching some videos on youtube and doing some reading.

It's always my first resort. It's rare that I get cyano, maybe 3 times, but always hit it with CC and I'm done with it in a couple days. Like you, all the usual suspects are always in order, so really nothing I can change. And if you leave it long enough, it starts smothering corals. So, first sign, I dose.

Just be aware it will put your skimmer in over drive I turn my cup sideways during treatment to avoid the mess!

Do you turn skimmer and carbon off for 24 hours?

skimmer stays on, but tilt the cup so it overflows without making a mess. No carbon until you want it gone. I usually leave it 2 or 3 days, then a large water change and carbon. Skimmer takes some tweaking until it's fully removed.

I take out my carbon but just lower the bubble level in the skimmer chamber and/or raise my skimmer up in the water column if required until it stops overflowing. The product decreases oxygen levels so continuing to run the skimmer is recommended.

Do you guys run the air stone like it recommends or just rely on the skimmer?
