My green water culture seems to be "pearling." Are the gas bubbles, oxygen? Does single-celled organisms in the green water produce oxygen?

Hi,
Here is an article that will answer your question:

In short, during the day the algae will produce oxygen,
however, at night, the reverse happens and they produce
Carbon Dioxide.

Funny that, single celled plants behave similar to multi celled plants.
