LOVELY REAPER (Flower Hat Jelly)

By Frans Lanting

I just love it so i ReBlog it for you to know

If you're a small fish living in the waters off Brazil, Argentina,
or southern Japan, delicate tendrils and a distinctive pinstriped bell may be the last
thing you ever see. The flower hat jelly (Olindias formosa) is rare species of jellyfish
that can grow up to 15 centimetres or so. It may look fragile to us, but this jelly is
an effective predator of the sea. Normally its tentacles, and the venom-filled
stinging cells, are coiled up and kept near its rim, but just let an anemy or prey come to near, and these weapon get whipped out in a flash. Although its venom is not likely to kill humnas, getting stung by one will still hurt, so look out!

Ancient Sea Monsters-Sea Serpents

Oarfish, also known as ribbonfish and king of herrings, is a deep water creature that can grow up to a size of 50 feet (15 meters) in length and weigh up to 600 pounds (272 kg). This deep sea creature is officially the longest bony fish living at a depth of between 66 feet and 1000 feet. It is known that when oarfish gets sick or is near to death it comes on the surface of the water and sometimes to the shore, that’s why we have ancient tales of seeing sea serpents coming out of the water surface. A 16 feet oarfish that was found on the shore of Bermuda beach in 1860 was described as sea serpent (image below). There are no scales on the fish and it’s not edible due to its gelatinous flesh.
