We have welcomed Spotted lagoon jellyfish into our Cool Seas zone, which is another new species for The Deep!
They can grow 10-30cm in diameter and feed on either tiny zooplankton or generate their own food, using sunlight to photosynthesise the algae carried within their body. These jellyfish are strong swimmers and travel the ocean in small swarms following the path of the sun before descending to the depths at nightfall.
