The Living Bioluminescent Bio-Orb - a Living Glass Sphere Powered by Ocean Plankton (PyroDinos)

Lots of fun. They glow every night.

This is a shockingly good idea that is also well executed. Products are as advertised. Customer service set some new standard for responsiveness with the accuracy, speed and completeness of their answers. It's not that I needed customer service to fix anything I just had some questions about long-term care and the starting weights of the hardware so I could keep records as I watch them expand. If you're not careful you'll end up with a new hobby and might end up buying their entire product line piece by peace. It happened to me. I now have a new hobby. You can enjoy these on many levels from oh wow look at the pretty lights, to the enzyme reaction that causes the light and the genetics behind it. You'll never look at algae again the same way. I wish I had this when I was 6 years old but it's not too late for anybody. These are the Original Gangster sea monkeys. It is an erector set chemistry set or just an art display or maybe you're subversively becoming good at saltwater aquariums and didn't even know it until it was too late. In the right hands this could accidentally produce a new generation of natural philosophers

Left it on the window sill during the wintertime and got too cold I think. Looked cool while it lasted.

No glow. Dead?

Wonderful so far waiting for glow

I bought them as Christmas gifts, knowing full well I’d have to open them and get the process started myself. They arrived fast with perishable on the box. One is for my husband (and no longer a secret after I squealed when it lit up the first time about 4 days later), the second is for my brother and I’m a week in so just fed today. And then swirled tonight - pretty sick illuminated blue- and I am most excited to give this other one to one of my favorite humans. We are fascinated with the bioluminescent bay and it will be such a great opportunity to give my brother a part of that. I read some of the reviews and was so worried, bit the bullet and went for it anyway, always the pessimist thinking it wouldn’t work. However it did… but seriously open it immediately and follow what it says! Love how nature has so many really amazing organisms we can observe. When we get to having a lot of them we will get a bigger globe, and not waste the fascination! Thx, again and again. It gets brighter the longer you have it and after the first feeding I was addicted and will continue feeding and growing them. 😁😁 happy bio nerd.

still looks great 3 weeks later!

I should add that it was summer and I live in Florida... but if your in a high temp area, I would think twice about ordering... I will probably reorder in the winter. - Thats assuming the 98 degree weather was the reason.

Reçu en moins de quatre jours. Comme indiqué par Pyrofarms, ouvrir des reception. Apres une semaine, pour permette au phytoplancton de se remettre des conditions de stress du transport, ainsi que du decalage horaire, la magie prend place de maniere de plus en plus spectaculaire. Entretien facile"videos disponibles sur le net", le phytoplancton n'a besoin que de lumière et des mineraux qu'il puise dans l'eau de mer. Trés bonne idée cadeau, je recommande.

I bought this as a birthday gift for my partner, after 16 days after delivery they have multiplied. He's followed the instructions and he has also bought more food for them so he can continue to feed them when he needs too. They're very cool to see and watch grow. Thank you

Thought it would be as beautiful as the reviews had it for abit now and nothing sadly it was pretty for the first week?

Item as described and arrived on time. Exceptional customer service.

It’s very cool, I’m glad I was able to acquire my own and yes it does instead glows in dark. I just thought it would be much brighter than it appears to be.
