The yellow disk is a Coscinodiscus, the purple oval disk is Oblea and the sticklike branch is Thalassionema.
More of the mysterious purple oval disk.

Dr. Morton says that the pink compressed dinoflagellate is Oblea with a super big food vacuole. So neat!!!

Mystery Microbe
Brown and moves like a dinoflagellate. Begins at 17:08.
Could it be Akashiwo sanguinea, but its not colored like them, and its shaped differently.
