Hello everyone,

Let’s see if someone can help me identify the individuals in the sample.






Thanks!

Nice images. These are Coolia dinoflagellates.

Best treated with an oversized UV with slow flow. UV should be approximately 1 watt/3gallons of tank volume. Best to plumb it directly from the display (not the sump) with a dedicated pump moving about 2x tank volume/hour. These are tough and toxic so be patient and consider running GAC to fight the toxicity.

Sorry for your issues!

Could I please just ask what 'scope you have?

Best of luck!
