Ira Posted September 30, 2015 Report Share Posted September 30, 2015 Given how many things fluoresce I'm more surprised that this is the only turtle that fluoresces. Shine a uv torch like they're using into an average marine tank and just about everything fluoresces. Wander around your house, all kinds of stuff does.Everyone seems to be reading this as bioluminescence, but it is not producing light. It's just fluourescing under UV. livingart 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
