So been battling what I thought was cyano for quite some time only to realized it's dino after purchasing a microscope. Add some algae barn pods & feeding phyto daily for 2 weeks now. Also level was Nitrate was basically 0 with Phosphate, so I stop water change and just dosed to maintain level for about 2 weeks. Finally today I'm at 5 NO3 and .25 PO4 yet still no change on dino what so ever. Want to see if anyone here can tell me what type of dino this is, and if I'm on right path exterminating these suckers.

Hello,

Dino stink. Can’t ID them for you, but you will need some additional methods to fight them. Usually Vibrant, Dr. Tim’s, 3 day black out, UV are used.

Maybe someone can Id them first so you can have an idea of a good treatment
