Depends how long your tank has been up and running, if it's a new tank then it's pretty normal to have some cyno for a little while but it will clear itself out, if it's an established tank and has been up and running for a year or more you may have some type of nutrient problem, in which case you're better off to find out what is causing it vs. just treating the problem IMO.
