Dino id

Seems like I switched from coolia to ? amphidinium?

Seems like you have a lot more than dino's going.....so maybe less of a worry, more like "just an algae bloom."

Consider reading the first post and posting in the main dino thread in this sub-forum. (Thread is for toxic dino blooms.)

So some preliminaries.....

How are you pods? Healthy? Missing in action?
How is you CUC? Missing? Acting drunk? Stunned?
How are your corals?

A full tank shot might be informative.

As would a full read of your tanks water tests...inlcuding everyting, s.g., temperature, nutrients, minerals, et al.

Cuc Is alive and well. Only a sinularia seems to be affected, shedding every 5-7 days.
NO3 10
PO4 0.03
Kh 8
Ca 435
Mg 1450
temp 24.5 - 25
PH 8.1
I'm dosing silicate once a week

Hm.

How are you cleaning and filtering the tank currently?

Anything unusual about the sinularia's position in the tank? E.g. is it high up, or at the bottom, or next to the powerhead or furthest from it? What are its nearest neighbors?

PO4 is pretty low...depending on the accuracy of your kit perhaps signficantly lower than 0.03.....IMO provie relief for the tank here. Either stop or remove filtration that would lower PO4 or dose PO4 to a target (0.10 ppm)

Seems like the rest of the numbers are good.
