In the blue ocean, there are many beautiful and transparent jellyfish living in it. They float in the sea like parachutes one by one, and their graceful appearance is amazing. The sky-blue sail jellyfish has a transparent "sail" erected on its back, which is bumpy in the sea like a small boat by the sea wind and waves. The moon jellyfish has an umbrella-like bell-shaped body that floats on the sea surface like a bright moon falling into the sea. It is very beautiful. The man-of-war jellyfish is shaped like a monk's hat. Its tentacles are very long and covered with countless small cnidites. The venom of the cnidocytes is similar to that of a cobra. There is also the highly poisonous cubic jellyfish, also known as "sea wasp". In the ocean, if you see these jellyfish, be sure not to touch them, otherwise you may be stung by their poisonous cnidocytes, or even die.

The man-of-war jellyfish is a large floating sac floating on the water surface, with pointed ends, a bulge in the middle, and a flat bottom, shaped like a monk's hat. The overall color is cyan blue, sometimes slightly reddish. Distributed in the South my country Sea and the warm seas of the Pacific, it often uses its well-developed tentacles and strong stinging cells to ingest food. People will feel severe pain when touched.
