Both are from Domain Eukarya, are unicellular and are water organisims
Both are types of algae, a single-celled organism that lives in water. And both have plant characteristics, mainly the presence of cellulose in their cell walls.
Fire Algae are in Phylum Pyrrophyta :)
They most likely belonged to the phylum Chrysophyta.
The phylum chrysophyta is green algae. They can be found on any body of water; ponds, lakes, creeks, streams, rivers, etc.
The more than 8,000 species of diatoms are the largest group in the phylum Chrysophyta of the kingdom Protista.
Kingdom Animalia; Phylum Arthropoda

They are distinguished by their characteristic cell wall which is composed of hydrated silica.

Dinoflagellata and Pyrrophyta are two seperate Phylums, but share some of the same members. Pyrrophyta encompasses more organisms, and a working dichotomous key cannot have two phylum that share any of the same members; it defeats the point of seperating the organisms in the first place.

for Plato golden algae
Phylum Chrysophyta consists of mostly unicellular or colonial organisms called golden algae. They are primarily found in freshwater environments and possess chlorophyll a and c, as well as carotenoids for photosynthesis. Some species are known to form silica shells, while others can be parasitic.
Dinoflagellates in the phylum Dinoflagellata are responsible for causing red tides. These harmful algal blooms can produce toxins that contaminate shellfish when ingested, leading to a condition known as paralytic shellfish poisoning.
Phyllum is not used itself ,but members of this Phyllum are much important in producing red tides and bloom in sea as in red sea . These blooms are toxic to fish and other organisms+
