So let's try some yeast!

Just to be clear, I use a teaspoon, not tablespoon.

I have added a small amount of sugar before, but most of the time I don't.

I did have dinos before that were bad, but are mostly gone now. I get a little here and there from time to time, but nothing worth complaining about. I fought mine initially by adding a few bacterias and dosing vodka and peroxide at specific intervals over a 2 week period. Forget the name of the method, but was made up by a guy named Cruz. For me, it initially was very promising and got rid of maybe 90% of my dinos (ostreopsis, though I'm sure that's spelled wrong). I ended up doing the method twice which helped more, but after a month or so they did start to come back. I ended up feeding more, and started dosing Vibrant twice a week for 10 weeks which finally got it under control along with scrubbing my rocks weekly before each vibrant dose. I don't know if dosing yeast has/had anything to do with my dinos, but I never noticed any direct correlation between the two.
These are good experience to hear.. I will definetelly try the yeast dosing as you did. I would use the vibrant however, lately we are suffering from import supplies. I currently living in Turkey. Perhaps I can find something similar to vibrant. If feeding my bacterias will not work, i will go for the dosing vodka method. Here is a picture of my dinos currently.

I put1ml of vibrant in a 75 and within 24 hours all my red monticap turned white and died. Didn’t touch anything else.
 
Update
After I start using the yeast, the dinos are compeletely gone!.

What I did while dosing the yeast is that I was siphoning out the dinos to my filter socks and after that I was dosing yeast. My tank is 90 gallons. Im dosing 1/3 tea spoon per 3 days.

Thats it. What happened to the two more weeks. This is like a good series abruptly ending.
