I'd appreciate any help in confirming the ID of the Dino's blooming in my tank. There are so many threads and information here, I'm struggling to confirm against my own observations...
I think I am seeing Amphidinium?

My tank is fairly new, with low/no nutrients (0 Nitrates and .005ppm Phosphates) surely contributing to the Dino issue...

Prorocentrum dinos

Great pics, by the way!

Thanks for the help confirming the ID, time to research how to best beat them! ;Bookworm I took the photos with the camera included with this Microscope. I had some issues with depth perception and interference due to using too thick of a dino sample, but I am happily surprised with how well the camera worked too. Much better clarity than I had expected to see.
