===Step 1: What You'll Need=== | |||
Fresh (but dead) Sea fish, squid or shrimp (if you don't have access to fresh fish you can simply buy the bacteria from Carolina biological supply here: http://www.carolina.com/product/vibrio+anguillarum%2C+living%2C+tube.do?keyword=Vibrio&sortby=bestMatches) | |||
Aquarium salt (from pet store) or fresh sea water | Aquarium salt (from pet store) or fresh sea water | ||

===Step 2: Get Your Hands on Some Dead Sea Fish=== | |||
If you live by the ocean, GREAT. Just go down to the local fish market and get some fresh ( never frozen) squid, shirmp or fish from the sea. I tend to think squid is the best, then shrimp then sea fish since vibrio fischeri etc live inside the light organ of the bobtail squid, but there are tons of these guys all over the ocean. With a little luck the seafood you pick up will have the strains on it, if not, just try again or buy online like the rest of the land locked people. If you are land locked but visiting the beach you may be able to put the fish in a jar, then pack the jar inside a cooler with ice untill you get home but its not a guarntee. Or you can take some sterile agar culture plates with you and grow some bacteria while your on vacation and take it back home to your lab....your family may think your a bit strange but it's worth it ( I did it on a recent trip to Cali muwahahaha). | If you live by the ocean, GREAT.

===Step 3: Make Some Bacteria Food Method # 1=== | |||
Like you and me bacteria need food to grow so let's make some food that our bacteria will LOVE. Its full of vitamins, amino acids, carbon, minerals and of course salt, without salt they won't live (they live in the ocean after all). | Like you and me bacteria need food to grow so let's make some food that our bacteria will LOVE.

Place glass petri dishes (not needed if you bought some sterile plastic sealed ones) in as well. | |||
Fill cooker with about 1-2 inches of water. | |||
Seal pressure cooker and set heat to high | |||
When the top valve starts to dance and hiss start a timer for 15 min | |||
When time is up turn off heat and let cool down until pressure valve retracts | |||

you can buy ready-to-pour "photobacterium" agar from Carolina Biological for about 7 bucks for 125ml....it's pricey but is the best for luminescent bacteria | |||

They are a genus of Gram-negative bacteria and belong to the family of Vibrionaceae. Some members of this genus have the ability to produce light and are therefore bioluminescent | |||

== The illuminated mushroom== | |||
This mushroom has developed an amazing feature, it shines in the dark. In our native forests sometimes infected by the Hallimasch root pieces. This phenomenon is referred to as bioluminescence and is also known by the fireflies. For most observers of yesteryear, the glowing wood was mysterious and eerie, and associated with wizards, fairies, and elves. In this mushroom species shine both the mycelium and the fruiting bodies. Interestingly, however, only the American style of Panellus stipticus shines. He has a creamy white color and 1-2 cm large, shell-like fruiting bodies that spread throughout the trunk. Every year new fruiting bodies appear. | |||

Nothing happens without reason in nature. So the extraordinary appearance of the mushrooms has a biological function. The emitted green light is visible to insects and attracts them. Similar to the "bees and flowers principle", the insects land on the mushrooms and transport on their onward flight spores that have stuck to them. Thus, the mushrooms receive by their striking luminous advantages in the propagation and distribution. | Nothing happens without reason in nature.

I ordered the shining mushrooms from https://dikarbion.eu . I got it after a week. | |||
I first had to lay log in the water mixed with vinegar. It had to stay in there for 18 hours. | |||
Then I made the holes and put the mushrooms in. | |||

===Results=== | |||
The world is huge with so many hidden organism that are alive.This project let me to know this new world. helped me to learn how to control these little animals and learn the differences from them. | |||
Nothing happens without reason in nature. | |||
These little animals have helped me with their skills to explain my story. | |||
A co-operation to explain a collaboration between humans and nature to history. | |||
