California Dreaming, Southern California's natural bioluminescence

Bio-Orb Upgraded
PyroFarms has increased the size of the hole in the top of the Bio-Orb. Bio-Orbs shipped in June 2020 and thereafter most likely have the larger hole.

Bioluminescent Ball at the Beach
Some recent images of the bioluminescent event in Southern California

Bio-Light a sustainable light source
PyroFarms has been working on a sustainable renewable light source for over a year now

Custom Dino-Tile on display
A Dino-Tile is an interactive, self-contained, bioluminescent dinoflagellate environment

The Rise and Fall of the Dinos
In this short video, we filmed from below a glass petri dish as we poured PyroDinos into the petri dish

Taking pictures of Bioluminescence
Fortunately, the cameras in our smartphones have improved dramatically over the past couple of years.

The two-color FluoroSphere
As the FluoroGels dissolve into the water, a unique and fascinating fluorescent show develops

PyroDinos getting a little agitated
PyroDinos and the other phytoplankton in our oceans are responsible for most of the oxygen we breathe. More than all land plants combined!!!

A Dimension of Light and Sound
Dinoflagellates are a part of the plankton community. These dinoflagellates are marine phytoplankton (plant-like plankton).

Best of the OctoStand Bio-Orb
Here are some of our favorite images and video of the Bio-Orb on the OctoStand.

The FluoroSphere goes next level (video)
Now available: PyroFarms' new two-color FluoroSphere with a two-color fluorescent dye combination

Glowing Nature exhibit in the Netherlands
PyroFarms dinoflagellates (PyroDinos) were used in Studio Roosegaarde's Glowing Nature
NEW Limited Edition Bio-Orbs
These Biolumiescent Bio-Orbs are hand made hand-blown recycled glass and are limited in quantity.

Shake, Rattle and Light
A pouch of bioluminescent dinoflagellates (Pyrocystis fusiformis) 'PyroDinos' are gently rocked back and forth

Fluorofacination
As the FluoroGel dissolves into the water in the glass sphere a unique and brilliant fluorescent light show unfolds

The Large Bio-Orb - Grow the Glow
PyroDinos stop producing Oxygen at night and start producing light-emitting compounds

FluoroSphere Unboxing and Intro (video)
Different every time you fill it, the FluoroSphere will mesmerize as it entertains.

An evening at the beach with The Bioluminescent Bio-Orb
Easy to care for, like a house plant, the Bio-Orb will produce natural light at night (bioluminescence) when gently swirled.

The difference between Phosphorescence, Fluorescence and Bioluminescence
At PyroFarms when we say 'Grow the Glow' we are referring to natural bioluminescence.

PyroDinos Released into the Wild (Video)
Once in a while we will take any excess PyroDinos grown at PyroFarms and release them back into the Ocean

Glowing Mycelium, Mushrooms and Angels
Bioluminescence is defined as light generated and emitted by a living organism

Bioluminescence hits the beach in San Diego (Video)
This is caused by marine dinoflagellates (microalgae) when their population increases under ideal conditions.

The FluoroSphere takes a spin
A black light illuminates the fluorescent compound which then emits a longer wavelength yellow-green light.
