You can try the method I outlined in this thread to test if it's dino

This will work even in the very early stages of dino when visual identification is still difficult and vague.

When i seen that tread a couple weeks Go was like godsent but nah i tryed it nd nothing formed back together, all my zoas basically everythings paleing out in my tank cause the cyano nd dino or whatever it is keeps gavoning anytraces of it, so im kinda in a bad position

looks like dino to me. albeit in it's burned out stage.
while messing with dino, i introduced them in to a spare tank and they stranded in to strings like that but quickly went away.
whatever it wants to feed on, it has very little. i got a bad outbreak dosing AA one time so it is interesting you mentioned that.
in it's current state it doesnt look like it is invasive, just an eye sore.
id forgo waterchanges a while and see how it goes.

Well, it doesn't look like is coming back. I don't think is Dino because I haven't siphon it out for a couple days and it didn't get any worse. It doesn't have bubble on them.

doesnt need to. here is dino when transfered to a "clean" tank.

no bubbles. it went away on it's own as well.

hard to believe it is the same stuff as this.
