I have been battling with somehting for months now, but i think its dinos. All started with dosing vibrant to kill the small amount of bubble algae i had. Now i wish i hadnt as this problem has hurt more corals than i had bubble algae. I looked at some tank water under a microscope and i was wondering if anyone could confirm if it is ostreopsis or not. Thanks.

I see a good resemblance in those pictures ofostreopsis. Sorry to hear about this! I know there is alot of good threads here that explain peoples stories and how they beat them. Personally a blackout worked for me. I Unfortunately lost a few corals in the mean time but it also eradicated the dinos.

This is a great thread to watch. Have you tried Dino X?

I don’t think so. Take a look here and see if it helps.
