Dinoflagellates are primarily classified as protists and can exhibit a variety of feeding modes. While many dinoflagellates are photosynthetic and can be considered autotrophic, some are heterotrophic and may consume smaller organisms, including other protists and organic matter. Therefore, they are not strictly herbivores, as their diet can include a range of food sources beyond just plant material.
The University of North Carolina at Wilmington has a Seahawk as its mascot which is a type of dinoflagellate.

Dinoflagellate blooms
Dinoflagellates use two tail-like structures called flagella to move. These flagella can propel the dinoflagellate through the water in a spinning motion. Additionally, some dinoflagellates can also move by contracting their cell bodies.
