Diatom or Dinoflagellates?

[garrickrevels]

My friend and I are thinking this is Dino but I'm not sure. Let me know what you think. I have read that Diatoms can get air bubbles on them also so I don't no what to think.

It's diatoms if it was dinoflagilets it would be stringy and grow even faster

Thank you it's has been like this for 2 weeks. It's a new system 4 months old

Do diatoms usually have air bubbles attached? I've never seen it.

Looks like diaotoms with some bubble algae sprinkled in.

Thanks a lot for the help. I'm going to keep and eye on them and see what happens. I changed my carbon, GFO and did a water change yesterday so maybe that will help.

Diatoms, no worries, once they've eaten all the silicates out of the system, they will be gone.
