Here's a new papercraft from Epson's aquacraft site. The Japanese sea nettle (Chrysaora melanaster), also called a northern sea nettle or brown jellyfish, is a species of jellyfish native to the eastern Pacific Ocean. It is sometimes referred to as Pacific sea nettle, but this name is also used for Chrysaora fuscescens.Japanese Sea Nettle: Jellyfish Papercraft

A deadly species of jellyfish, translucent and the size of a thumbnail, is spreading along Australia’s coastline as a result of global warming, scientists warned today.Irukandji jellyfish are among the world’s most toxic creatures – all but impossible to detect in the water but packing a potentially lethal punch belying their tiny size.Until recently it was thought that they were confined to
The Portuguese Man Of War Jellyfish is a very beautiful jellyfish that can be found in the tropical and subtropical regions like the Pacific and Indian Ocean.

"Jellyfish Lake is a well-known dive site in the Pacific island of Palau. It is one of the rock islands, a series of small, rocky, uninhabited archipelagos off the coast of Koror. Jellyfish Lake is completely isolated, but in the distant past, it had an outlet to the ocean.The outlet was closed off and the high jellyfish population was isolated and started to feed on quickly-reproducing algae.

Late in the 19th century, the noted glassmaker Leopold Blaschka, and his son Rudolf, made thousands of intricate, beautiful glass models of unusual plants and undersea creatures. It was an age of exploration, and museums were hungry for displays of the odd botanical and nautical specimens. The Blaschka's filled this need for over 50 years, and their masterworks live on, thrilling museum visito

The Lion's Mane jellyfish is the worlds largest jellyfish specie. It's bell diameter can grow up to 2.5 meters. The largest recorded specimen had a bell (body) with a diameter of 2.3 m (7 feet 6 inches) and the tentacles reached 36.5 m (120 feet). It was found washed up on the shore of Massachusetts Bay in 1870. It lives mainly in cold, boreal waters of the Arctic, northern Atlantic and northern P
Jellyfish - The King is Half UndressedFrom album: Bellybutton (1990)A great song back then and a great song still today, 18 years later.They went on to make the epic album Spilt Milk in 1993 (I assume you own this album, or will do very soon!). After that, sadly, Jellyfish was no more.
In 2006 I read a book that changed how I saw the oceans. Carl Safina's book, "Voyage of the Sea Turtle" drove home to me just how much we've lost. For the first time, I really felt robbed and bitter that generations before me had left a greatly impoverished world.The more time passes, the more it becomes obvious that planet Earth really is a closed system. To create more of anything else (people, more luxurious lifestyles) you have to take from somewhere else. Anything you buy, eat, consume, you're taking from someone or something else. It probably is from poorer people elsewhere, but it's most definitely from other species. The more there are of us, and the more materialistic our lifestyles, the less there is of everything else. When simple living advocates remind us to "Live simply so th

the jellyfish is back. this time more powerful. The Naive (Laura & Cristina) turned the "red room" from "La Scena" into "jellyfish room". really like the result.
Huge giant jellyfish. Look at the diver, dwarf compare to the jellyfish.Encountered at Pulau Tioman, Malaysia:They are pelagic jellyfishes. Though they are big, there are harmless and has it's own sub ecosystem drifting around with it.

News arrived on Wednesday (my apologies as I started writing this a couple of days ago, on the morning of the 21st Nov, but I was unable to post until now because I lost half of what I originally posted..) about the only salmon farm in Northern Ireland being wiped out by jellyfish last week. The (original) BBC article will follow with details. What is interesting is that of the online papers running this story in the UK at the moment (morning of 22nd November, not a single one has mentioned even in passing the environmental questions that really should be asked and indeed have a precedent to be asked. I will expand on this after you read one of the articles:
“A jellyfish invasion has wiped out Northern Ireland’s only salmon farm, killing more than 100,000 fish.
A Northern Salmon spokesman said last week’s attack could cost more than £1m.
Billions of small jellyfish, known as Mauve Stingers, flooded into the cages about a mile into the Irish Sea, off Glenarm Bay and
October 31, 2007—They didn't have any bones to leave behind, but ten fossilized jellyfish recently discovered in Utah have made an impression in more ways than one.
At half a billion years old, the fossils represent the oldest jellyfish
ever found and push back the known existence of jellies 205 million
years, scientists say.
The newfound fossils also offer much greater detail than more recent
specimens, which has allowed researchers to link the ancient animals to
types of jellyfish living today.
"The fossil record is full of circular-shaped blobs, some of
which are jellyfish," Paulyn Cartwright, a University of Kansas
biologist who was on the research team, said in a press statement.
"That's one of the reasons the fossils we describe are so interesting,
because you can see a distinct bell shape, tentacles, muscle scars, and
possibly even the gonads."
Cartwright and her colleagues studied these anatomical features
and found that

Maggie’s plane leaves in three hours, and a car is picking her up. For us, no awkward hugs in front of the metal detectors at the airport. Instead, I wait in the sun room like someone about to undergo day-long tests at the doctor’s. Flipping through a three-year-old National Geographic, I wonder if I’ll ever climb the Himalayas. A line of thought as grandiose as it is tenuous. Or wait—maybe not. Who’s to say I can’t enroll in rock climbing school once I flail out of this financial mess? I can hire a guide, join an expedition. I can begin again.
Speaking of which, here comes she comes. Maggie and I are still locked in our same little game of chicken: who’s going to say good-bye first? She plunks herself beside me with a teasing sing-song.
“Hey, sweetie, want to go on a walk?”
“Why?”

A diver works to attach a tracking device to a giant jellyfish.
If I hadn’t seen this in National Geographic, I’d probably have chalked it up to another Photoshop’ed web hoax.
Not only do we have to worry about sharks we have to worry about giant jellyfish. I can’t imagine swimming into a 25 pound glob of stinging goo that stings.

Jellyfish life cycle and reproduction :
Images : Noaa Ocean Explorer, Wikipedia, Monterey Aquarium
Jellyfish are marine invertebrates of the class Scyphozoa, and can be found in every oceans in the world. The body of an adult jellyfish consists of a bell shape producing jelly and enclosing its internal structure, from which tentacles are suspended. Each tentacle is covered with cells called cnidocytes, that can sting or kill other animals. Most jellyfish use these cells to secure prey or for defense. Others, such as Rhizostomae, do not have tentacles at all.
Jellyfish lack basic sensory organs and a brain, but their nervous systems and rhopalia allow them to perceive stimuli, such as light and odor, and respond fast. They feed on small fish and zooplankton that become caught in their tentacles. Most jellyfish are passive drifters and slow swimmers, as their shape is not hydrodynamic. Instead, they move so as to create a current forcing the prey within rea

Coffeekid interrupting: Oh, that's not poison ivy. That was for skunks!

Supposely a really popular item in Japan is the Aquapict Jellyfish Aquarium. It displays color-changing jellyfishes (see video above). The system includes a 5-color LED lighting system that has red, yellow, green, blue and purple). They move with the slow current in the tank like the jellyfish aquariums.
Cool huh!
The best or bad part is that they are NOT real but are really realistic looking jellyfish made out of silicone.
Specifications:
• Height: 270mm (10.6in)
• Width: 210mm (8.3in)
• Depth: 120mm (4.7in)
• Aquarium material: High quality ABS plastic
• Jellyfish material: Silicone
• Power: AC adapter
If you are interested, you can buy it here. It’ll cost you $155 plus $39 shipping worldwide direct from Japan.
Very very tempted….

Did you ever wanted to own some Jellyfish? Here’s a cool jellyfish aquarium you can get and watch those stingy bastards all day long, just don’t touch one.
A huge hit in Japan, the Aquapict Jellyfish aquarium shows beautiful color-changing jellyfish swimming as they do in the deep sea, but none of them are real!
ade with highly-realistic silicone, the Aquapict jellyfish swim and change color subtly with the five-color LED lighting system (red, yellow, green, blue, and purple). They move by a slow current created in the tank that does not have an obvious flow or bubbles that make it look fake. It looks unbelievably real and beautiful!

now how cool is THIS? Forget the lights around your garden. if you have a pool, this is the way to stand out..and to show everyone how much of a fish nerd you are.
This is the floating jellyfish pool light. according to the website….
All show and no sting, these battery-operated Floating Jellyfish Pool Lights unleash a kaleidoscope of color as they float in the water. For larger pools, unleash a flotilla to create a crowd-pleasing effect.
* Crafted of durable PVC
* Realistic, fiber-optic tentacles emit a vibrant glow
* Top changes colors throughout the light show
* Controlled by a simple auto-off switch
Uses four AA batteries (included).
My only wish was for it to be solar-powered. That way you can leave it in the pool 24/7 and every night it’ll light up without having you to worry about changing out the batteries or turning it off and on.
