SRC Member cutebarra77 Posted April 11, 2012 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 11, 2012 How come I did not think of that? And yes, I usually will do that. Hmmm... possibly the culprit. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRC Member cutebarra77 Posted April 15, 2012 Author SRC Member Share Posted April 15, 2012 A nice bro collected a bag of the jellies this morning...i think he is doing a research on them... Anyways, so little time and so much research work to do on this 'alien'. The closest I got to was this: Source:http://www.wetwebmedia.com/jellyidfaqs.htm This looked the closest to the aliens I have. Anyways, the jelly fish class(es) were simply too much and I have to respect the great marine biologists whom have spent years of research on them. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptomedusae http://www.ville-ge.ch/mhng/hydrozoa/hydrozoa-directory.htm More research...
