Since November 2014 I've had 6 ostreopsis outbreaks in one of my tanks. Now I can handle it very easily and get rid of it in less than a week without any animal loss.
I just switch off the skimmer and increase feeding amounts. If I was throwing in three frozen dice a day, I start feeding with six or eight and any sign of any dinoflagellates vanish.
I have another tank that was infected with ostreopsis. It is about six months squeaky clean and I just had to switch the skimmer for several days.
Corals are thriving in both systems.
