I don't think Moon Jellyfish are actually this color. I suspect they have very little pigmentation of their own (any marine biologists want to weigh in here?), but the NC Aquarium at Pine Knoll Shores elected to light the tank this way and it really does give a soothing feel to the display. The one flash lit shot I got of this tank I didn't like at all, so I opted for the ambient light even though it forced me to shoot a shutter speed so slow that blurring was inevitable. For some reason I couldn't get these guys to hold still. Go figure.
