Jellies drift through open seas
Because it takes so little energy, drifting is the most economical way to travel the vast open waters. Drifting jellies need only pulse their bells gently as they ride the ocean currents. As they go, they feed on small fishes, jellies and other small drifters also along for the ride.
They are built to go with the flow-
Alien as it looks, a jelly's soft shape is perfectly adapted to it's environment. The animal's skin stretches over a body that's more than 95% water (no bones or shells to weigh it down). As the jelly drifts, those dangling tentacles, covered with stinging cells, are combing the water to catch its prey.
