Detailed description
It’s as if a piece of the ocean returned home – subtle by day, glowing at night. Bioluminescent plankton of the species Pyrocystis lunula, originally from the North Sea, lights up with a soft blue glow at dusk whenever you move it. This unique form of living light operates without batteries or cables – purely based on the natural rhythm of light and darkness.
This is no illusion, but a real, living process. The plankton consists of microscopic single-celled organisms – dinoflagellates – that charge during the day from sunlight or artificial light and react to motion at night. Just a gentle shake and a luminous trail comes to life.
Caring for it is easy: daylight, room temperature, and a calm environment. No feeding, no cleaning – just peace and quiet. The glass vessel we ship the plankton in serves not only as a home, but also as a functional design object. And what’s more – these microorganisms naturally help reduce CO₂ in the space, just like algae do in the ocean.
It contains no animals or chemicals, is completely safe, and makes a sustainable gift – perfect for those who love nature, light, and calm.
Ideal as a personal experience or a luminous detail in the nighttime interior.


At Ocean’s Clouds, we believe that beauty should flow hand in hand with responsibility. That’s why every jellyfish we offer is bred in a carefully controlled environment — never taken from the wild. Raised under optimal conditions, they grow without stress, mirroring the calm they later bring into your home.
Our aquariums are designed to echo the natural rhythm of the sea. With no sharp edges and a continuous circular flow, they create the ideal habitat for jellyfish to drift, pulse, and glow — just as they would in open waters. It’s a living sculpture that adds silence, softness, and balance to any space.
This is not just about keeping jellyfish. It’s about creating a daily ritual of calm, a connection to the ocean, and a space where science, design, and nature meet. What you see is effortless beauty. What lies beneath is precision, ethics, and years of marine expertise.
