Any luck w this?These were taken at 300x. Looks like osteoporosis. Only some are moving. I have a UV installed for the last 10 days but they don't seem to be going away. Please help!
I've done Dr Tim's Dino Recipe, dosed Microbacter7, running UV, blasting the sand and rocks but cannot get rid of them. My nitrates are at 2-5 ppm using Red Sea, Phosphate 0.02-0.06 using Hanna ULR.
My cleanup crew of snails Anda conch are doing fine... So I'm not sure what to make of this.
I ran a cheap 25 watt Green Killing Machine that seem to only help control growth. I raised temp to 82* and things have gotten considerably better after ~5 days. I only see a tiny bit of dino bubble on overflow box. I'm waiting for my Aqua UV to come to replace the cheap UV. I think just raising temp, adding a few more fish, and increased feeding seem to have helped.Any luck w this?
I think I have the same again
nice. I know the idea is to grow new algae that outcompetes dino's for food. I knew mine was over when i saw algae growing on glass. Then i had too much algae and when i nuked them....the dino's returned.I ran a cheap 25 watt Green Killing Machine that seem to only help control growth.

Best options to fight?Ostreopsis are highly adaptable to their environment. Some will go dormant when stressed.
In 2016 when I was working with these guys I found them to be highly difficult to beat.
This may be just a few of the reasons why
DNA Damage Response Pathways in Dinoflagellates
Dinoflagellates are a general group of phytoplankton, ubiquitous in aquatic environments. Most dinoflagellates are non-obligate autotrophs, subjected to potential physical and chemical DNA-damaging agents, including UV irradiation, in the euphotic zone. ...www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov
