    Dual or single over flow

    A 1in bulk head will let 800 gph flow thru. I think they are pretty equal

    Dual or single over flow

    I didn't think there is that much to gain by having the second overflow. I would rather have more swimming room.

    If you can, start running GFO (slowly) and carbon, make sure you maintain your water parameters.

    Combating Cyano.

    Agreed, and would like to see Ph at around 8.3 and Mg at like 1350. ph and mg aren't causing cyano but your corals would be healthier.

    Combating Cyano.

    Already stated that previously.... Read the thread. Toxic chemicals!? I guess baking soda and Epson salts are toxic too. Right?

    If you want cyano to go away you can dose 1ml per 10 gallons of hydrogen peroxide H2O2 for 5 days.

    Combating Cyano.

    You can also completely cover your tank for three days, make sure no light gets in. It will come back unless you figure out what is causing the bloom.

    Tip for removing: put a hose in your return line and use the water flow to loosen the cyano, then net the cyano out of the water.
