Glow In The Dark Without Black Light?
There are glow in the dark craft paints that do not need black light to glow. You can get larger cans of higher quality wall paint that also does not need black light. They glow because they retain the light cast on them during the day. Check your craft store for smaller acrylic craft paint, around Chicago area it is called Apple Barrel. I'm pretty sure it is Rustoleum that makes the larger cans you can get from your hardware store. Use your imagination as to what to use them on.
Do Glofish glow in the dark without a black light?
Glofish are genetically-altered danios that were bred to detect radiation in waterways. If radiation is present, they glow. This is the only time they glow, they will not glow in the dark or anything like that, and while I have never seen one under a black light, prolonged exposure to black light would be harmful to them.

Bioluminiscence: Bioluminescence is the production and emission of light by a living organism as the result of a chemical reaction during which chemical energy is converted to light energy. The name originates from the Greek bios for "living" and the Latin lumen "light". Bioluminescence may be generated by symbiotic organisms carried within a larger organism. It is generated by an enzyme-catalyzed chemoluminescence reaction, wherein the pigment luciferin is oxidised by the enzyme luciferase. Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is involved in most instances. The chemical reaction can occur either within or outside of the cell. In bacteria, the expression of genes related to bioluminescence is controlled by an operon called the lux operon.Check out more for it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioluminesc...

Any Black Light Party Ideas?
I'm throwing a party for my birthday (21+) and I need some more ideas. I have a few but was wondering about some cool food, beverage, decoration ideas. I'd like it to be very creative and unique. Here's what I have so far. -painting on the walls with liquid laundry detergent (glows in black light). -putting glow sticks in neon balloons. -Hanging fluorescent tulle. -Mixing mountain dew, baking soda and hydrogen peroxide in bottles (glows without black light). -Ice cubes for drinks made of tonic water (tonic water glows in black light) -Glow Jello (replace water for tonic water) -Drawing on ourselves with neon yellow highlighters. -Cake with neon frosting. Any other ideas would be great. Nothing permanent, has to be things that can be taken down or removed easily.

Glowsticks and Blacklight?
uv lighting emits electromagnetic radiation with very little visible light. typically the best thing to see under black lighting is white. yes glow sticks fluoresce a bit brighter under uv lighting, however the two are mutually exclusive. glow sticks glow through a chemical reaction called chemiluminescence. black lighting does nothing to enhance this but since the "glow" is the right colour it will be a different glow under uv.if you're throwing a party i would suggest you use fluorescent and/or white paints. those are the colours that will stand out best under uv lighting. glow sticks are optional. go to a party supply store and get brightly coloured slinkies to use as decoration. white yarn can be used to string up decoratively as well. psychedelic posters are ideal for black lighting and can be bought for relatively cheap at your local head shop. good decorations. it's close to christmas so perhaps you can use snowflakes to decorate as well. those will glow nicely in black lighting.lasers may not be the best idea. people aren't very smart at parties and laser lighting can be damaging. strobe lights are fine in small doses. don't make it the focus because your eyes are already taxed looking through uv lighting. strobe lighting can cause headaches and nausea.ps. phosphorescent paint (commonly called glow in the dark paint) will have the same effect as a glow stick. yes it will glow under uv lighting but it won't be enhanced by it. as i said before just stick with fluorescent paint. you will achieve the best results with those colours.
Do Glofish need a blacklight to glow?
Glofish will not fluoresce fully unless they are under a blacklight. Blacklights might be weird for fish to look at, but it certainly won't blind them. Without a blacklight, glofish simply look like mildly colorful danios, and that's nothing special. The best setups actually have a a blacklight coming from either the back or bottom of the tank, so you can alternate between them. Blacklights for display, and regular lights when you're looking to just replicate daylight. Cheers,
