I've had both:
On the cyano, I've used the UltraLife Red Slime Remover, only at half the recommended dose, which works but you gotta shut off your skimmer for a month or more which can cause other waste levels to rise. It didn't seem to bother my corals at all which was nice. Now I run GFO which keeps it under control. On the GFO, when I first ran it I could hardly use any cause it took out too much Phos which made the sps mad. After my tank matured more I had to use about double the GFO to keep phos just down to a level which controlled the cyano.
On the dino, that was a terrible experience. The dino usually started around the base of my sps and halimeda which was everywhere. I used to keep my tank super clean and dosing extra trace elements often. Well it turns out that's exactly what feeds it. I changed my water changes to every other week and stopped dosing trace elements and it went away after a while. I couldn't figure out it was dinos and was assuming cleaner was better. Drove me crazy for six months. Might have just took time for the tank to mature.
