Cassiopeid [Cassiopeidae]
Description
Cassiopeid jellyfish are often seen drifting just below the surface, where their translucent bells and delicate tentacles catch the light. Divers may spot them gently pulsing as they move with the current, sometimes appearing in small groups near rocky or seagrass habitats.
