Diatoms or Dino

Looking very nice!! Im not convinced it wasn't though.

I was more being sarcastic. I'm still somewhat a rookie in this hobby and honestly don't know if it was or wasn't but after reading so many things on how difficult dinos are to get rid of and all I did was cut lights for 2 days. And they are almost gone. I don't want to jinz myself so I'm gonna take every precaution to make sure they are gone permanently but it just seemed to simple. I guess I was expecting the worse.
 
Good stuff. You'll be on your way in no time!!
 
Last update.
I went lights out for a full day and a half.
Than lights on for 3hours for two days and now normal light cycle. No more dinos. I still have some brown diatoms on the sand that I want to go away. Here's some pics.
