I tried to solve the inequality
b^2 c^2 - 4 c^3 - 27 d - 4 b^3 d + 18 b c d > 0
using
FindInstance[b^2 c^2 - 4 c^3 - 27 d - 4 b^3 d + 18 b c d > 0, Reals]
but I get the error
"The system contains a nonconstant expression b independent of \
variables {\!\(\*TemplateBox[{},\"Reals\"]\)}."
Any idea why, or alternative method to solve the inequality?

I checked the documentation page for FindInstance usage
FindInstance Docs
and tried
FindInstance[b^2 c^2-4 c^3-27 d-4 b^3 d+18 b c d>0,{b,c,d}, Reals]
which instantly returned
{{b -> -(29^(1/3)/2^(2/3)), c -> 0, d -> 1}}
You get a full symbolic solution with Reduce:
Reduce[b^2 c^2 - 4 c^3 - 27 d - 4 b^3 d + 18 b c d > 0,
{c, b, d}, Reals]
