Dino ID confirmation please... Prorocentrum?

[Richard ML]

Hello,

I'm battling a dino outbreak, and I believe I've confirmed it to be Prorocentrum. Do you folks agree?

100x/250x/400x/1000x:

Thanks in advance!

Osteoporosis
First- Check phosphates and nitrates to assure theyre not elevated.
Here is full program:
Prepare by starting with a water change and blow this stuff loose with a turkey baster and siphon up loose particles.
Turn lights off (at least white and run blue at 10-15%) for 5 days and at night dose 1ml of hydrogen peroxide per 10 gallons for all 5 nights. If you dont have light dependent coral- turn all lights off.
During the day dose 1ml of liquid bacteria (such as bacter 7) per 10 gallons.
Clean filters daily and DO NOT FEED CORAL FOODS OR ADD NOPOX as it is food for dinos.
Day 5,, you can start with blue lights - ramping up and work your white lights up slowly

Ostreopsis looks much more egg/teardrop shaped, and from what I can tell, these look identical to Prorocentrum from the stickied identification guide.

Could very well be. On a phone screen looks like a lot of things. Seeing the pictures colonization, osteo came immediately to mind

Bump - anyone else agree that it's Prorocentrum? Any votes for Ostreopsis?
