Amazing Photos of Sea Nettles (Chrysaora)

We have such a wonderful God that has created beautiful sea creatures for us to enjoy.  Just recently I took the family to Monterey Aquarium in California.  During our visit we had the opportunity to go behind-the-scenes and see firsthand how it operates on a daily basis. One of the spectacular exhibits that we enjoyed where the jellyfish. In the next few posts I would like to share with you a few photos from our visit. In this post you'll find photos of sea nettles. Free-floating scyphozoa that have a golden brown umbrella with a red tint. I hope you enjoy the photos.
