The upside-down jellyfish is a jellyfish that usually rests with its mouth facing up, so it can look more like a sea anemone. It lives in shallow, sheltered coastal water, such as lagoons and mangrove areas. It is special because it shares a partnership with algae that give it colour and food.1

It is a jellyfish, even though it is often mistaken for a sea anemone.1

2

A shrimp lives among its tentacles and removes parasites from it. In exchange, the jellyfish protects the shrimp.1

3

Tiny algae called zooxanthellae live in its tissues, giving it its colour. In return, the jellyfish gives the algae the sunlight they need.1

4

It can reproduce both by budding, when it is in its polyp form, and sexually, when it is in its medusa form.1

5

Its pulsing bell moves water through its arms, which helps it breathe and gather food.1
