some photos I took at the aquarium today

I finally had time this week to get my give-away winner’s request of ‘jellyfish’ finished, but it appears that freerangesquids has been deactivated.  If they happen to still stalk this blog, here you go.  Sorry it took so long.

I’ve never drawn jellyfish before, but enjoy looking at photos of them.  There are so many cool ones out there, I had a hard time deciding what to do.  These are an attempt at chrysaora melanaster according to the reference photos I pulled months ago.  I picked them because of the stripes.

Jellyfish are gorgeous, aren't they?

They are very graceful as they undulate...

Sooooooo lovely...

They come in so many colors and different sizes... the ballerinas of the deep... 🪼

pictures of a japanese sea nettle (chrysaora pacifica) i took at the london sea life aquarium. they are carnivorous jellyfish, with their diet consisting of other jellyfish, anchovy eggs, zooplankton and copepods. their sting causes skin irritation and feels like a burning sensation and is considered mild.

this species of the genus chrysaora is often confused with their larger cousins, the northern sea nettle (chrysaora melanaster). as such, some specimen in public aquariums are often mis-labeled as c. melanaster.

Question: Is your pfp the Chrysaora hycosella??? 👀👀... I always mix them up with the Chrysaora pacifica and the Chrysaora melanaster because they all look so similar 😭😭.... Also, it seems as if the picture for the Chrysaora pacifica English Wiki is a Chrysaora fuscescens instead of a Chrysaora pacifica... though I might just be mistaking it, haha (I have no confidence at all ;w;) (By the way, I wouldn't use scientific names usually but because these jellies in particular have confusing names, I just stuck to the scientific ones for more clarity ;w;)

Hi

I think it is a Chrysaora hysoscella, but honestly I just trusted the website I got it from. I don't know how to spot the difference between most Chrysaora types... I hope the bigger picture is clearer to inspect

I get most of my information from Wikipedia (which can be flawed indeed) and the jellyfish book from Lisa-Ann Gershwin. I love that book but it is not mentioned there.

You seem to know so much about them, where do you get your info from?
