I added bioluminescent algae to this spherical fountain & the results were AWESOME! Check the second photo for a shot of it in the dark.

That’s incredible, so I feel like an idiot for asking but would you have to like…feed the algae in any way?

They eat light, i.e., Photosynthesis. All they require is daily moderate light -like a houseplant.

Anyone else read that bold part like Tamatoa from Moana?

Cool! I've always held a fascination with bioluminescence. I want to get the beaded bracelets that just came out. Anyone have one yet?

What nutrients are you using for them? Saltwater or freshwater?
