Was able to snap a couple pics with my iPhone through microscope viewer… not the best photos but maybe someone can help ID… I placed some brown hair looking algae on the slide.. this is what I saw

well now it looks like little bunches of hair in the holes of the rock...i pulled out most of the rock, cleaned it all, installed UV, shortened light hours, changed them to mostly blue and im dosing hydrogen peroxide. so its like 80 percent better...im at a little over a week of UV installation/rock scrub and day 3 of hydrogen peroxide dosing
 
No dinos that I could see.
 
Agree with @dwest . Looks like some "pizza" diatoms, filamentous algae and likely a couple of artifacts(the dark, round blobs).
