In my tank there is less in the sump, but they are still obvious. In a friends tank they really took off in a new frag tank sharing the same water and lighting.
Someone moved a dino rock to the dino free tank in the same system having the dinos migrate off of it.

It could be as simple as the dinos finding the most favorable sports in the system since they do take the whole tour several times during each day and night.
The connected tanks have dinos for sure, but they don't settle there for some reason. Dinos know what they want and flock there.

I just found a short and very precise article by a local fish disease vet. (In Icelandic)
It's about dinoflagellates and diatoms in the ocean and how they bloom and affect aquaculture here.

I've met him, he is a great guy and I'm going to try to have him over for a chat.
