A worldwide community photographing and learning about wildlife
Cassiopea sp.
They are found in warmer coastal regions around the world, including shallow mangrove swamps, mudflats, canals, and turtle grass flats in Florida, and the Caribbean. The medusa usually lives upside-down on the bottom, which has earned them the common name. Where found, there may be numerous individuals with varying shades of white, blue, green and brown.
In the past I have seen them in the Keys, FL while kayaking through mangroves. These live in the Aquarium of the Bay, SF.
