Algae ID? (microscope picture)

[stephenhall1987]

Tank looks like dinoflagellates, brown slime growing on sand and rocks. Put a sample on a microscope slide, doesn't look like anything I've ever seen.

They are flat. They have a clear body around the brown leaf shaped guts. I can't see any flagellum, but they appear to be slowly moving around on the slide (crawling?).

Anyone know what this is, or where I could look to find out?
