WRASSEFAN, You should not use the skimmer during treatment,as per the instructions. My skimmer also did the same thing the treatment was done and I yurned it on. If you were skimming during the treatment,maybe thats why you had less than miraculous results. I also had to vaccume out the dead stuff when it was dead.It didn't dissapear by itself.But it has never come back.STEVE

Well, now I'm a believer. I did continue to skim but the day after I posted my last message, the tank started clearing alittle more. Well, today it looks amazing. Almost all trace of the cyno is now gone. I didn't vacuum anything because between the 3 hermits, my 2 power filters and the skimmer, there hasn't been much to get out. I do have to do a water change but now I'm a believer. This stuff was amazing. Thanks Mr. Salty and kb for turning me towards this stuff. Now if I could only get my money back for the other stuff I tried.
