Are you cycling your tank? Need tank parameters as in phosphates, ph, temp, all the routine test. Size of tank, lighting refugium, are you feeding the refuguim. Whats your filtration, as you can see, can't solve the problem unless provided with more information and pictures do speak....

I've never used a remover. That cyano above was from one of my tanks. Time and maintenance fixed it for me.
