>"6. Monster pyramids The first pyramid salt crystal that grew from this solution was an absolute beast. The humongous head was covered with all sorts of intricate formations that reminded me of bismuth crystals." That's a very interesting observation! I'm wondering in all of Chemistry -- are there other possible crystal formations that look like Bismuth or specific Bismuth-looking pyramid salt crystals? Also, could we take molten Bismuth -- and somehow grow a pyramid shaped crystal out of it? If so how? If not, why not? Anyway, great article!
