I hear they go extinct after a few million years.
 - Water changes - Good flow - Established biological filtration - Regular syphoning of the actual dinos themselves.

I`ve been fighting the dino for years now and recently I finally got it beat.
I`ll tell you what worked for me and what didn`t. What didn't work ! 3 Day black out; it worked but if you don`t solve the underlying problem it`ll just come back (I lost a few corals due to the stress too!) Raising PH; I didn't see any difference. GFO; It didn't make much of a difference for me but I still recommend its use in general. No water changes; Didn`t work in my experience What worked! Carbon; This made a big difference in my experience! Lots and Lots at least 1 Cup per 50G. The more the better. Changing RO Membrane; I believe this was the main problem. If your not getting 0 TDS then your going to have Algae problems. Good Husbandry in general. What may also help for you is using a diatom filter and running some silicate absorbing media through a reactor. If you feed frozen foods you should rinse them before adding to tank. Good luck

Hey there if you look on the noet it gives you lots. I know of some members on here that have been in contact with the dino's most of the time if you black out the tank for 5-7 days will rid of the dino's
