Pacific Sea Nettles Fun Facts :

• The Pacific sea nettle feeds on small crustaceans, small fish and fish eggs and larvae. It will also eat other jellies.
• In recent years, these jellies have become so abundant that they appear to be reducing adult fish populations by consuming so many fish eggs and larvae.
• The concentrations of jellies can become large enough to clog fishing nets and block industrial water intakes.
• As in other true jellies, the sea nettle exhibits a life cycle that includes both sexual and asexual stages.
• The genus name Chrysaora has its origins in Greek mythology.
