Algae thrived across various planets, notably an airborne species on Bespin, and within the aquatic environments of Ahch-To, Sibensko, and Toydaria. On Toydaria, expansive algal mats blanketed significant portions of the world's surface. The crime boss "Big" Sturg Ganna possessed an opulent suite featuring fountains adorned with flowering lilies and bioluminescent algae, which emitted a distinct bluish light.
Algal cultivation occurred through the use of algae farms to generate algal products. A fragment originating from the Great Hyperspace Disaster impacted Hetzal Prime, resulting in the devastation of thousands of square kilometers dedicated to algae farming.
