These lentil-sized jellies are some of the stickiest critters in town. They have specialized adhesive discs on their tentacles. When stuck on the side of aquarium glass, they look like a spray of tiny stars. #DailyJelly

Blue sea dragons (Glaucus) float on the surface & hunt Portuguese man-o-war. Not only do they eat one of the world's most dangerous animals, but they actually steal man-o-war stinging cells and use them as armor! #DailyJelly Vid: https://t.co/JmmbZB6dwU
Jellyfish like this have HUNDREDS of mouths! Filter-feeding jellyfish are called "root mouths" b/c they have a complex network of connections leading to the stomach. I wonder: do these 'mouths' also function in gas exchange, like lungs? #DailyJelly Study: https://t.co/69LHwxVDkw
There are living islands in the open ocean, made of animals that live only at the surface. They are rare-seen, absolutely stunning, and now in danger. Why does the #OceanCleanupProject terrify me? Animals like this will be helpless against it.
