Not enough detail to tell for sure. Can you get a slightly more dilute sample. The detritus is blocking the view and the movement of the dinos
What I can see definitely doesnt look like ostreopsis or coolia(the ones that respond to UV)

So I dosed Dino X first time last night.

today i took a sample of the hair alge stuff from the back wall which had lots of dinos before. Under the microscope most of them seem dead, or at least barely alive. Very little movement anyway.

there is still plenty of these really small whitish things that move quick. What are they?

Those look like ostreopsis and they sure aren't moving. The smaller, really fast things are not dinos IMO.
