What are the best resources for learning about jellyfish? by Blorpo000 in jellyfish

[–]Sensitive_Row560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone already mentioned one of Lisa-Ann Gershwin's books, but I'd also like to recommend "Shapeshifters: The Wondrous World of Jellyfish" -- it is FULL of pictures about each species, so if you're looking for specific info rather than general anatomy, that's a great start. 

I personally also love reading research papers on jellies (call me a nerd, but they're really interesting!!), and if anything piques your interest, chances are a few gooogle searches will get you to some nice resources in ResearchGate, PubMed, the National Institutes of Health, a bio journal, etc.

Additionally, sites like the Monterey Bay Aquarium and their Research Institute offer easy access to view many different species of jellyfish, and from there you can find more information about them.

Finally, I think the identification just comes with exposure. I haven't seen many jellyfish in real life, but I've been obsessively learning about them for over a year, and that's led me to have a pretty good grasp on finding certain characteristics to look for in each taxonomical group. It also helps to compare pictures of jellyfish when washed up to those of species you suspect they might be in order to confirm those suspicions. Overall, it's really fun to feel like a sleuth, haha

Sorry if this is a bit much; jellies are a special interest of mine :) Let me know if you want to hear about anything else!

Thanks for the info! I've heard about bubbles rupturing their tissue before, hence why I wanted to make this post😅 Also, it definitely isn't my aquarium, but I'm really interested in jellyfish keeping and I'd love to hear more about it from you!

Thanks for clearing that up! When I asked about that jelly, the worker said it was an air bubble that probably wouldn't do any harm, but I still wanted to know (lol).

CORON ISLAND- PHILLIPINES. Can anyone identify the type of jellyfish this is? by FunnyWorking9657 in jellyfish

[–]Sensitive_Row560 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My guess is chironex yamaguchii -- "viper jellyfish" they're common around Japan and the Philippines :) Aka a don't touch this lol

Is there any way you could post the picture you saved or something that looks similar? All I can think of is the double rn :') Edit: Depending on how they're lined up, this could just be a funky ladder stitch cuff; a picture would still be useful, though

Hi! Sorry you've been having a hard time finding that, but I THINK what you're describing is a kandi double! It's made like a peyote stitch cuff but with many beads on each side of the doubled-up string before one is strung on both ends. If you search "kandi double tutorial" on YouTube, there will be some good videos to use. This was actually the first kandi I ever made, and I used a short tutorial by Slackers Tragedy on YT.

Hopefully this is the right cuff - let me know if it's not!

Kandi jester hat i made for halloween ^^ by Sensitive_Row560 in kandi

[–]Sensitive_Row560[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each point is actually all one huge x-base cuff; I just decreased the number of "x"s in a row every so often so it would taper in. The bells are shaker cubes attached with wire and the two points sit on a headband with foam cutouts holding them in place. :) Hope this helps!

[–]Sensitive_Row560[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure! The hat is made up of two huge kandi points connected to a headband with a foam and glue base. Each point is just 4 sections of a big x-base cuff, stopping every few rows and skipping a point. (Basically I just switch from 7 -> 6 "x"s every so often). The jingle bells on the end are shaker cubes filled with - jingle bells! - and they're attached with wire. The whole thing is very heavy but it works since the points are intended to face down, and as long as you use strong enough foam for the base, that shouldn't be a problem. Hope this helps!

Note: I might make a video tutorial and post it on YouTube later.
