Spotted jellies obtain part of their energy from symbiotic zooxanthellae (algae) that live in their tissues and part from preying on phytoplankton and zooplankton.
The habitat for our spotted lagoon jellies is in the Tropical Pacific gallery, where there is also signage about the golden jelly that inhabits Palau’s Jellyfish Lake.
