Hi everyone!
For the last month I’ve been battling with what I believe is Dino’s. They slowly seem to be disappearing and have only ever stayed on my rockwork, wavemakers and back panel of my Fluval flex tank. Ive changed the filter floss every other day which has helped massively and fed more to up the nitrates and phosphates. My CUC all seem fine eating it so I’m guessing it’s not toxic. I’ve just bought a second hand microscope which isn’t great but have managed to get a fairly decent image of what I believe to be a Dino. Please could you help me to ID so I can finally combat it?

Thanks,
Jo

that's not a recognizable dino cell.
try getting some of the brown stuff onto a slide and drop a slide cover on (no pressing). See what you get.
