Sea Gooseberry – Pleuobrachia pileus 

These little blobs of jelly bring me so much joy – I cannot even express it! Incredible creatures, who float about in the ocean and use their long tentacles (which disintergrate when washed up) to ensanre food and bioluminesce beautiful colours along its sides! You often just seen them washed ashore, as clear blobs but they are so much more than that when they are in the sea. Check out my illustration of them in their colourful state in this video!
