dino cyano

Hello everyone! I thing I'm going through the ugly stage, my tank is 1ish month old, but I'm confused ! Can someone confirm me this algea is indeed diatom and not Dino or cynao ?! The microbubbles on it make me doubt a little bit ! First appears of this brown algea was 2 days ago! Not really...

I've been struggling with dino for 5 months now. It's much better now. I need to understand, the question is this: I have hair algae around my tank, it's brown for some reason, so I want to know is it just brown algae or is there something else sitting on it (presumably dino, diatoms, orrrr...

So I've been battling this battle for months now, I have had my tank for 7 months now, in the past I posted pictures of my tank and people told me that I had cyano. After a lights out phase and dosing peroxide, the cyano subsided, then came back. I tried mitigating but I just did manual removal...

I lost battle with dino and cyano. First i got dinos I used dinox which cleared my dinos after 13 doses, after that cyano took over and i used chemiclean cyano cleared after 2 days. After that dinos took over again so i used dinox and cyano took over again and ofcourse i used chemiclean. All...

Was able to snap a couple pics with my iPhone through microscope viewer… not the best photos but maybe someone can help ID… I placed some brown hair looking algae on the slide.. this is what I saw

So I’ve been battling with Dino for a couple months started a treatment of red slime. I noticed everything got much more solid, but I walked into my sand rising along with a layer of Dino. It was pretty easy to remove once hardened. My questions is: 1. Is this good or bad? On one hand I can...

No bubbles in this stuff except when matted on algae. It is a fluorescence orange when under blue light. I'm stumped and thinking it's cyano or maybe some kind of dino. any help is greatly appreciated

How do I deal with this. Getting bad. What type of algae is this??? I dosed vibrant once. My tanks only a few months old...should I boil everything and start over?

Hey guys, just trying to figure out what kind of algae I have growing I’m reasonably new to the saltwater hobby is there anyone that can point me down the right path.

I’ve got some microscope pictures! I have a Cyanobacteria outbreak, it’s starting to grow over some corals. I used chemiclean 2 weeks ago, did the 20% water change after and have continued with my weekly 10% maintenance changes. The cyano came back way worse, I’ve also been dosing vibrant. I see...

Hi guys, I've been reading this group for many months.:) 6 weeks ago I started my cycling of a 43 gallon tank without fish and with dry rock and live sand. There is no longer ammonia or nitrites and nitrates are at 100 ppm (Red Sea) and phosphates are barely detectable, 0.01 (AF) or zero. For...

Hi, Ive been out of the hobby since HS (used to be very active on Reef Aquarium Guide) but recently got back into it and got a waterbox Peninsula 25 for Christmas. Everything was going great until I moved house and left by aquarium to be looked after by family for a couple months.... when I...

I’ve just looked under the microscope to see what looks like to be Dino cells. In my tank there isn’t much brown strands anywhere (not out of control) I just found some brown strands on my Zoas this morning? Can anybody help.

Hello, it's time for me to ask as I believe I am at the last rung. It pains to see that I cannot get my tanks from having all these pest problems. First I have invasion of the vermetid snail that was so bad. Then the flatworms came along with the newbie branch and lots more. It was so bad...
