🌙 Meet Our New Moon Jellies!

We’ve welcomed around 100 moon jellies to the Greater Cleveland Aquarium from our friends at the @southcarolinaaquarium!

Before their arrival, our team carefully prepared and sanitized the entire habitat and matched water conditions to help make ...their transition as smooth as possible. Moon jellies are incredibly sensitive animals, so every detail matters.

You can now find these mesmerizing creatures drifting through their exhibit in our Coastal Boardwalk gallery. Stop by and see them for yourself! ✨🪼
