Another update.

I still have lot's of dinos, but the odd thing is that for months they have not produced any strings or gas bubbles.
Most of my sand is covered and some of the half lit spots on my rocks as well.
I took a closer look last week and they are the same as before and the change in behavior is a mistery.

My corals are doing much better now, with most thriving, one has died and two are struggling.
The symptoms are usually the same, first a really slow growth is noticed, tissue is lost on the side facing the light while it lingers on the dark side for a long time.
Of course it could be something else, but with such a potent enemy in the tank one has to look there first for explanation.
Slow or no growth and tissue necrosis is something I've seen plenty of for the last few years. I do think dinos are playing a part there.

There is another Cyano phase going on now with the cyano sitting on top of the dinos. A pleasant sight indeed.
Last time it ended with most of the dinos gone and I'm hoping for something similar this round as well.
