A study of onset of convection of a new type of fluid, a fluid that contains both magnetic nanoparticles and microorganisms, is presented in this paper. We consider an infinite horizontal layer of water based magnetic nanofluids (MNF) containing gyrotactic microorganisms, heated from below, in the presence of uniform vertical magnetic field. Here we utilize the Chebyshev pseudospectral method to solve the eigen value problem in gravitational environment. The effect of various important parameters which are conducive for the stability of the system is shown graphically.
