Default snails dying

Yes definately could be dino's, it probably could be a combo of both.

I use RO/DI water (high silicate removal system) this should help with
diatoms but what about dinoflagalates?

What could be another source? I am using Kent poly-ox to try and fix
red slime/cyano and it seems to be helping slowly but would like snails
back to help with all algae!!

what would a good dino eater?

Nothing eats dinos as far as I know, and their appearance is usually due
to a water quality issue. Do you measure phosphates? Every dino
outbreak I've experienced is at least coincidental with measureable
phosphate levels.
