I have had my tank for 2 years. I try and keep up with water changes keeps things maintaned best i can. Yet every few months things go south. Can never keep any new coral alive. Every coulle months get a cyno out break and seem to never have clean up crew. Anyone have tips or a good site. Not sure maybe reefing just isnt for me.

75 gallon. 25 gallon sump. Running mag drive pump. Cant remember model. Maxpect gyre on opposite end of return plus 2 large power heads to try and stop cyno. 2 sb reef lights and refgium with cheato and led grow light. Would have to test parameters been a little while. Was dealing with a weeding and such so tank took bit of a slide.
Have you tried things other then flow to remove the cyanobacteria?
I have used chemiclean and have had it gine for months. Then bam its back
Are you re-adding equipment or something? It is extremely rare to keep coming back. The only other time I have seen repeat has been someone who put their carbon back online without cleaning the reactor and replacing the media. That just put the bacteria back in their tank.
Definitely time to get the all and nitrates in check.
What nitrate control have you been using?
