Taking care of ''Pyrocystis Fusiformis'' is pretty simple. You don't have to feed them, but you do need to put them in the proper medium and to split the culture every 3 to 4 weeks. To start with, you need a starting culture. It could be your friend's one that you split in two... they reproduce fast. Otherwise, you can buy a starting culture with different companies.

The medium I used to grow Bioluminescent Dinoflagellates is [https://www.carolina.com/biological-media-ingredients/bioluminescent-dinoflagellate-medium/153757.pr Carolina]. This is a ready-to-use medium. You can also do it yourself by using sea salt water and [https://mel.xmu.edu.cn/UserFiles/Image/gomap/pdf/f_2_medium.pdf f/2 medium]. This medium provides the organisms the nutrients they need in order to grow in such dense concentration cultures. Every 3 to 4 weeks, you will need to split the culture in two and put some fresh medium. This will help the reproduction of your culture. | The medium I used to grow Bioluminescent Dinoflagellates is [https://www.carolina.com/biological-media-ingredients/bioluminescent-dinoflagellate-medium/153757.pr Carolina].
