hello my tank is fairly new Maybe 3 months since cycle finished. Have some chromies and a tang. I have this algae which I fear is dinoflagellates





 
To me it's Brown patches almost jelly like that move with the flow with strings coming off of it and a few air bubbles. Also a slight hint of green
 
Look up dinoflagellates and see if that matches.
 
Cool. A cyano. It'll pass in a young tank.
