Aquatic plant producing oxygen

Fascinating.

Thanks, aquatic plant!

She's cute.

We live on plant farts? Oh no no no

Unoriginal OP copying Reddit posts

Cyanobacteria farts in general, yeah.

Go back, soiteen.

Folks call this "pearling" in the aquaculture world and it's a sign you have a good, healthy tank. Ironically, many people will add CO2 into the water to encourage plants to grow fast enough and large enough to this at such a high rate.

could one add sparkling water to a tank?

In OP’s video, there’s pearling underneath the leaves but the stream of bubbles we see coming out is due to tissue damage. Plants keep oxygen in their stem to keep themselves upright and this happens when you cut them.

Thanks, aquatic plant!

thank you for the oxygen braps little water plant

You could, but the CO2 would quickly degas from the water (essentially going flat) so the benefits would be short lived.

sounds like it's the closest thing to recreational drugs for plants

Imagine the smell

Look at that laminar flow, that's so cute.

>>5043293
it wouldn't do the trick. the CO2 needs to be very finely atomized into tiny, tiny bubbles to dissolve into solution, which is why soda water is put under pressure. When you twist off the top, the pressure is released and the compressed CO2 expands rapidly to create fizz and foam.

This is also what happens when you get the "bends" from diving. The gasses in your blood at depth are under great pressure, but it you come up too fast, they expand and create blockages in your blood vessels and all kinds of other awful stuff. You either have to come up very slowly, pausing at specific depths and waiting, or come up fast then literally strip and run into a hyperbaric chamber and do the decompress in there on board the ship.
