I've had this laying around for a while. Had some recent interest, so I tweaked it a bit and am posting it. Not really about cures just ID pictures, videos, and a few short facts. Hope it can be helpful.

As the title suggests, this is intended as a short guide on what to do when you suspect dinoflagellates are trying to overtake your system. It is an attempt to boil down the protocols discussed across 11,000 posts in this "Are you Tired" thread...

Thanks! This is my second go-around, hopefully my new, larger UV will be more effective.

my first-hand experience with live phyto (home grown) is that it grew a lot of pods, and the pods died due to the toxic dinos and the dino population increased significantly.
