OK if they disappear while the dark period and grow back quick while the lights are on it might be Dinoflagellate which are difficult to treat. Does the stuff forms string in the water column if you stop the water movement completely for 15 to 20 minutes ?
Please post your full doing regimen of all products not just the products you use for the treatment.

Than I think those are Dinos, difficult to deal with them. Many had success keeping the tank without light for a couple of days, while doing this stop dosing the coloration elements like ZeoFood, CoralBooster, PFI, FWS and AAHC.
The link to the video does not work.

i did a 24 hours blackout and i dose 30ml of dino x from Fauna marin and it is almost clear. i heard from another reefer that using cyano clean with black out does work too .
this is the previous video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIB0...ature=youtu.be
video after dosing : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTEu...ature=youtu.be . i tried it works
one more question , is that the zeolite for my tank is 1.2l , does it mean it is 1.2kg?

Yep dinos. I have the same problem and there is fix for it yet. Some say raising po4 and n03 together help but I ha ent experimented with it. I tried bleach....DONT DO IT. Lights out for 5 days helped with peroxide, but they just came back in a week. It almost like they love the low nutrient system. I hate the ba$t@rds.

Material is measured with the volume, so for each 400 liters net water volume 1 liter (1 bag) of the material.

The new version is 1l but the weight is 1300g . Does it mean I need 1.2l which is around 1500g???

It is a natural material so the weight can differ from bag to bag which is the reason why it is measured by its volume. Volume is the important factor not the weight.
