Hi guys, I had 3 different types of dinos (ostreopsis and amphidinium large and small cells). This time I can't identify them on my own so I'm asking you to help me
They are only on glass, rocks are clear and CUC eat them without dying

my current water values:
7,6 kh
400 ca
1230 mg
3 - 5 no3
0.07 po4
I'm running 7/24 36w UV

on the glass they seem dinos but under microscopes they seems chrysophytes. I've never seen a video of chrysophytes so I don't know their behavior, they seems to have a flagellate to move like dinos

after 2 weeks from last scrap
here some pic
