  • Contact me if interested in a cultivation kit. I offer both starter packs and addtional nutrients to keep them alive indefinitely. ;-)

  • awesome!!

  • Did you hear about the Cambridge research group that tried to insert firefly and Vibrio fischeri bioluminescence genes in trees and other plants? They said that IF it had worked (they just got algae to glow), future cityscapes could use glowing trees (which would get the energy they needed from the sun, atmosphere and soil) as street lamps.

  • Hey guys i just put a video up of this same thing in hong kong!!!!! Its pretty awesome you should all check it out and subscribe!!

  • lol bet this was same thing like in a glowing stick.

  • who needs Pandora? we have our own glowing things at night hehe

  • wat a bioluminescenes????

  • Check out my Bioluminescence video from Hong Kong, we found some SUPER concentrated ones that were really bright.

  • It happened to me swimming at night and I will never forget it. Thanks for the video. It will help me remember the magic.

  • I wonder if you can spot bioluminescence in action under a microscope

  • It's good you Watches the Ship. Every Ship should be Watches.

  • I saw it I think four years ago at a beach at Wangerooge, a german island. It was the most wonderful thing I've ever seen, such a brilliant experience...unbeliveable. Thank you for filming this, it's so difficult to explain because nobody can imagine it who never has seen it before.

  • It's amazing how many americans here are saying how much they love PR's bioluminiscent bay ...makes me feel proud ..and also deeply ashamed haha because I've lived here my whole life and I have never seen it! Totally have to do that this summer

  • You should see it when it's raining. The water seems as if it was on fire.

  • We just had a Red Tide in San Diego the other night. It was amazing! I wish I had my camera. Thank you for sharing. :)

  • I've actually Jumped in the lagoon in PR and swam for a while. Everyone said i lit up like tinker bell lol.

  • it was awesome i did that at mosquito bay. coolest thing in my whole life. it even tops hot air ballooning and being feet away from the hot lava in hawaii. hopefully i can do it again befor i die

  • I've seen this happen in San DIego at night! I was soo lucky! It was amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Puerto Rico's bay is more brighter.

  • I'm in British Columbia, Canada right now. I was visiting out cottage on gambier island. there is a marina there, with lots of algae on the docks. it makes this bioluminescence glow green instead. there is a dock there, about 10-20 feet. imagine swimming in that. you know when your swimming and all the little bubbles are white when you move around? imagine them glowing green. it was the most amazing thing I have ever experienced. seriously cool.

  • I know what you mean!

    I was in Nanaimo, B.C. on the weekend and swimming in the bio luminescence was mindblowing, the most incredible thing I've ever seen. At night, it's like creating stars in the water with your fingertips

  • You need to come to Puerto Rico bro, we have a lot bioluminescent bay !

  • i just got back from a trip to visit family in puerto rico and i whent in the bio bay sooo fun!

  • LOL!

    My camera's night vision wasn't too good. It was super-bright.

  • thank you that was just what i needed!!

  • I also saw something similar when I was on a ship in the caribbean, on stern watch at night the churn from the prop was a stream of glowing bluish green light, it was really quite amazing I had never seen anything like it. Unfortunately it translates horribly to pictures and video.

  • did i miss something? looks like water at night to me...

  • This is a fantastic image, thank you :D I saw this happen at Santa Monica Beach, CA when I was 19... It was crazy I though I was having a flashback lol When we walked along the shore our footsteps glowed blue for a few seconds, it was awesome. Also there were these fish that appeared to be walking, I believe they are called grunyon, they are attracted to the algea just as the bioluminescent plankton are :D Most people dont note it, but this phenomenon happens along with red tide... Again thanks!

  • im confused...whats all the hullaballoo about? something bioluminescent stuff in the water when disturbed!!!?? damn... nature never ceases to amaze me...

  • i wish i was bioluminescent...

  • Just break a chem light and rub the liquid over your skin, works well

  • I just came from the biobay...im still wet..lol it was amazing

  • Awesome. I took similar photos over at biobay dot com of this.

  • all i saw was a fish swimming in wAter and leaving bubbles behingd it. I'm dissapointed :'(

  • Read description. It is the frontal "v" wake off of the front of a navy destroyer

  • Its most probably a bioluminescent dinoflagellate or other planktonic animal. One main stimuli of their bioluminescent capabilities is water movement

  • or photosynthetic organism, not just animal sorry!

  • @SgtPidgeon

    bubbles glow blue at night? what?

  • dude i love the bioluminesent bay!!!!!!!! it rocks!! for those of u that dont no it is a bay with micro organisms that light up when u touch them, the fish is swimming, it is the best, i went there in puerto rico, but for me it lite up green, i got to go swimming in it too, i was green! it was cool

  • So... what is it exactly that I'm looking at here? What kind of creature(s)? You might want to make mention of that in your video description, since the video itself is fairly unclear.

    Cool though.

  • Done. Thanks.

  • It looks like a bioluminescent algae bloom. There's a species that emits light when disturbed. Blooms like this near beaches are especially spectacular as the waves churn them up.

  • @ozwalled2007 Bioluminescent plankton. A red tide event.

  • @ozwalled2007 I believe they are bioluminescent plankton.

  • Thank you, spectacular isn't it!!!

    Feel free to check out the MySpace web page link in my profile for amazing pictures of the bio-bays in Puerto Rico!

    Blessings :)

  • go to vieques island for the brightest bioluminescence ever. a few days after the full moon at sunset at the mouth of the bay - spinning glow worms!
