Dinoflagellate fountain - Would it work?

Hello, I wanted to use dinoflagellates in a fountain to create a bioluminescent fountain. Would this work? Are there any special steps I should take? Or should I just save my money?

No, glowing uses a fair amount of energy and they can't keep it going over time. If you keep disturbing them they stop glowing.

Yes. It's also pretty dim light, it would be very difficult to see if there were any other light source.
