I highly dought it. Cyano bacteria is more of a stringy bacteria

Hey @Dan_P looks like those spherical cyano(maybe) cells aren't really all that rare.
To the OP, though it's not stringy cyanobacteria filaments, we think these are another growth form of cyano cells.

That is interesting. Hopefully, not a cyano pandemic.

Its strange as the early stages it was light green and as time progressed it got darker. Still not sure what it is exactly

Cyanobacteria can develop into a thick film of cells.This could account for the deepening color.
