Hi

my 1 year old tank was running great, until I decided to add some dry rock for new frags. (Really regretting that now )

I had an algae bloom, then tried to decrease nutrients, run GFO, etc. now I think I have dinos? Other thought could it be cyano?

I am surprised by possible dinos because there was a lot of GHA or bryopsis so nutrients couldn’t be that low.

current plan would be turn off whites, perhaps dose peroxide.

what do you think?
Thanks for any advice

Bottomed out nutrients using too much gfo to get rid of gha, classic case of Dino’s
 

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
