Are these diatoms? Dinos? What? Treating for cyano right now and also have massive invasion of what appears to be snotty brown growth, kinda cyano like, actually. Got a microscope and took a couple of shots. Saw these little fellas


attacking what looked like a tiny pod...

Edit: added another pic and video. Have been doing more looking. Appears to be Ostreopsis to me. Can anyone confirm? This is the first time I have taken a swing at this...

Thanks!

I would say the green blobs in the microscope pictures are not cyano.they look like algae cell and cyano is a bacteria. Awesome pics and videos.
