dinoflagellates are really easy to identify since they go into a free swimming stage with the absence of light. If your tank looks pretty normal when the lights come on and looks like hell before they go off you have dinoflagellates. Easiest way to remedy I have found with experience is run a filter sock and switch daily for a 4 day period do a 48 hour lights out reintroduce light in 2 hour intervals each day until back to normal. Monitor your ph and use kalkwaser to keep ph at normal daytime levels throughout the lights out periords.
