Take a moment to relax and enjoy the serene movements of our upside-down jellies! Have you ever wondered why this species spends its time upside down? It's because upside-down jellies have a fascinating symbiotic relationship with photosynthetic algae called zooxanthellae. By resting upside down in shallow waters, they harness sunlight to produce energy through the algae. These jellies also pulse their bells to filter feed on small organisms, expel waste, and move to more suitable locations, a behavior you can see in this video!
