What have you done so far? There are many things you can do to tackle it, but I warn you it won't be easy, or quick.

Can you give us a complete run down of your system? Including what fish you have, how much you feed? Also how old are you bulbs? What is your flow like. How often and how much are you doing water changes etc . .

Little Fish is spot on. Need to know what's going on in your system. Any of the things she mentioned can lead to bad outbreaks. Could we also have a run down of your current parameters (salinity, pH, alk, etc)?

The best way to get rid of dinos is a blackout. It's also the least harmful to your other inhabitants. I'd turn the lights off (and if your tank gets ambient light, cover it in a sheet or blanket) for 4 days or so. Do a large water change and see how it looks, if you need to keep the lights out longer. During that time, you can turn the lights on for short periods of time to feed your animals.
