Jelly Fish
Did you know that there are more than 200 species of jellies — and they're made up of 95% water and have no heart, brains, bones or other organs?

Jellies Exhibit
If you like Jelly Fish, you won't want to miss a visit to the Aquarium of the Bay to see their New Jellies Exhibit — the Moon Jellies and Brown Sea Nettles — they're amazing... and the largest jellies we've ever seen!

Moon Jellies
Beautiful translucent Moon Jellies are displayed in a floor-to-ceiling tank. They're hypnotic — we could have watched them for hours.

All Moon Jellies on display were born and raised at the Aquarium.

Brown Sea Nettles
Wait 'til you see the Brown Sea Nettles (pictured above and below). They're much larger than those we've seen before — and they look like something from another planet!

Brown Sea Nettles are most commonly found along the west coast of North America — specifically along California and Oregon coasts and into the Gulf of Alaska and Mexico.

Stinging cells are located within their tentacles. They have no control over what they sting — so beware... they'll sting instantly when touched.
