Bioluminescence in Action: How Creators Are Bringing PyroDinos to Life on YouTube

At PyroFarms, we’re always inspired by the creative and curious minds who bring the glow of our bioluminescent PyroDinos into their own worlds. Whether you're exploring science, art, or simply looking for a little magic in a jar, we love seeing how people use our living light to spark imagination.

Today, we’re highlighting some incredible YouTube creators who’ve recently featured PyroDinos in unique and visually stunning ways. These videos showcase not only the beauty of bioluminescence but also the science and storytelling that bring it to life.

"I Built a Living Copy of My Heart" by Luke 

What if your heartbeat could glow? Luke took that idea to another level—literally. In his video, I Built a Living Copy of My Heart, he 3D-prints a full-size model of his heart and pumps it full of glowing "blood"—powered by none other than PyroFarms’ bioluminescent PyroDinos.

The result is both haunting and beautiful: a pulsing, glowing heart that blurs the line between science and sci-fi. Luke's blend of storytelling, engineering, and art makes this a must-watch.

"What If You Could Grow Bioluminescent Ocean Life at Home?" by KPassionate

KPassionate takes a deep dive into the science behind bioluminescence in her video, sharing how she grows PyroDinos at home and explaining what makes these organisms light up the night. It’s a fun, educational video that’s perfect for anyone just discovering the world of glowing plankton or wondering how to care for them.

She even walks viewers through her setup and feeding routine—making this an awesome intro for future glow-growers.
