BTW, for the interested viewers, there is also a TV series (consisting of three parts) called "Water Colours" and produced by "Liquid Motion Film" for National Geographic, the third part of which is titled "A Touch Of Fluorescence", which also contains some unheard-of and stunning footage of underwater fluorescence (even in the deep sea!). Just enter "Liquid Motion Film Water Colours" into your preferred search engine and you'll find it immediately.

@3x10E8: In case you meant "Pandora" from the movie "Avatar", then yes, definitely!

Maybe this is indeed where James Cameron got his inspiration from.
