Jelly Fish

[ayeshacantrell]

Some of you may remember that earlier on this year - August - I posted an image of a Jellyfish which I had photographed at Chumphon Pinnacle on Koh Tao.

The image caused some debate as it appeared to be a box jelly. I was advised my other members of this board to send it to DAN for their research.

The database and info is now up on DANs website and the more images and location sightings that they have the better.

Take a look at the DAN site here......

saw a huge one at Chumporn just before Christmas, one tentacle caught round the ladder so he was stuck for ages, body about 8inches long, tentacles 6 foot

@ Jamie; Think I got a picture of that, a box of which one tentacle was missing.

@ Ayesha; Good stuff! It's good that people will be aware of this in Thai waters. Unfortunately sightings become more frequent although it's not alarming yet.
