| Cassiopeia, the "Upside-down
Jellyfish". Sometimes sold as an aquarium species. These are
shallow water lagoon and mangrove swamp animals that use both
photosynthesis (via symbiotic algae) and many small mouths
scattered on their "tentacles" (eight oral-arms) to
suck-in zooplankton for food. Favored foods of Ocean Sunfishes and
marine turtles. |
