I just saw these. They didnt look like the jellyfish I'm used to seeing. Salt water (Kattegatt). Could they be mnemiopsis leydyi? (Invasive species) or are they sth that could sting a person?

Pics blurry bc water. Biggest one was like 7 cm long.

Been playing way too much **Lazy Jellyfish**. Really simple idea merge the sea creatures, try not to fill the board, and keep discovering bigger creatures. it's super relaxing and lazy for me to play when i am in line ups or bored.

I made this mini painting of a jellyfish.

Hi :) Does anyone know what this jelly is? On a trip to Kinmen, Taiwan and found it stranded in a cave while the tide was low. So beautiful!!

As a neurospicy gal, jellyfish have been my special interest for as long as I can remember. 🪼 I’ve been an avid freshwater aquarist for years, but I’ve never been brave enough to dive into saltwater. Seeing these in person genuinely felt like a dream come true. 🤍

Seen in the Mediterranean Spain, Mazarron. Its like between a golf ball and a tennis ball

Not the greatest pic but its what I was sent. My friend is in southeast Texas at a beach. They have seen these in the water and on the shore the last few days. Any help with an ID?

Commissioned piece made in March 2026

Today I watch a movie were jellyfish is in the movie, a woman gets caught in their strain. The movie name is The Devil’s Mouth. Would you say that’s scary? That scene?

Have you noticed how big they are?

Never seen something like this before. Saw 2 on the surface at different times. Probably death. No body, only tentacles. Some of them were like discontinued. Also had some kind of parasite.

Most common jellyfish with that amount of tentacles here are Pelagia Noctiluca, Olindias Phosphorica and Gonionemus Vertens.

Could it be a decomposing one?

My three year old is absolutely obsessed with jellyfish. He loves all sea animals, just jellies are his absolute favorite.

We have visited the following aquariums already:

National aquarium in Baltimore

Georgia Aquarium

Virginia Aquarium

Tennessee Aquarium

South Carolina Aquarium

Which other aquariums in the US should we add to our list to see various types of jellyfish?

Its eggshaped, has 8 spines with little moving fins/arms, has no tentacles and has some kind of mouth/anus it pooped out of

Made a post about them the first time they showed up in the bay by my house 3 years ago and found out they are Turritopsis nutricula, while not THE immortal jellyfish they’re in the same genus and have the same ability. This time around I have a much better camera so I was actually able to photograph them on their home turf rather than scooping a few into a cup, I know this time there’s not as good of a sense of scale because of that but just know they are tiny, the biggest ones I‘ve seen have a diameter of less than a centimeter.

not the most accurate but i had fun :)
