Hey everyone, my tank has been cycling for around two months now and I have noticed that the water has become super cloudy over the past week. There are these little brown nubs that form a web over the sand. Are they Dinos? I had three fish ready from my 30 day quarantine and was wanting to put them in, but I dont know if I should wait until this blows over.

Its more than likely new tank uglies.

Just make sure the N03 and P04 are above 0 to prevent Dino's.

Photo is not great, but doesn't really look like dinoflagellates to me... maybe a bacterial outbreak.
