Review: Warning: habit forming. Ya, you want this. - 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
Review: These are so awesome!! But follow the directions. - 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.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will the pyrodinos survive if left in original packaging or wrapped as a gift for a few days?**
A: The White PyroDino Spout Pouch should be removed from the shipping box upon arrival and placed in a typical lighted room.  The White PyroDino Spout Pouch can be stored unopened for several weeks as long as it remains in a room that receives daily light.  You may wrap the Bio-Orb up as a gift for 2 to 3 continuous days but any longer would stress the PyroDinos.

**Q: If i am adding volume with the dinonutrients will i have to continuously dump some out to make room (dumping living pyrodinos)?**
A: A Bio-Orb should be filled anywhere from 1/4 to 3/4 full.  Once your Bio-Orb becomes full you may pour the excess into a new container or down a drain.  Think of it as mowing a lawn, you are not killing the lawn, only making better conditions for the grass to grow.

**Q: If you use a magnetic stirer keeping it spinnin non stop or just for a while, will it kill the algea?**
A: Depends on how long you spin and how fast you spin.  Typically spinning the algae at low speed for 20-30 minutes doesn't seem to affect them much but we would not recommend higher speeds or longer durations.

**Q: Do I need to replace the bioluminescent often?**
A: No.  The living bioluminescent PyroDinos (algae) simply grow in the Bio-Orb and do not need to be replaced.  Make sure they get moderate light during daytime hours.  Do not add tap water or place in direct sunlight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the coolest things I have purchased
*by L***N on January 22, 2024*

I am a compulsive shopper and will pretty much purchase anything (within reason) that intrigues me. I watched a YouTube video that had this product in it and thought it was so cool that I wanted one for myself. It’s insane how these little guys emit actual light. It’s mesmerizing to watch and fun to show friends and family. It would make a great and unique gift, especially for those who are interested in marine biology
