Can jellyfish consume phytoplankton rather than zooplankton?
Well my jellies are surviving their second day with some phytoplanktons. They are about 3 cm long, yes they are minute. I don't think they eat live organism because they are not really sea jellies, and they do not have oral arms. They are very transparent and I see nothing in their bellies.
They just look aimless moving around, and they don't suck things into their bellies. I have a feeling they eat minute algae and phytoplankton, but I read jellies eat zooplankton. So can someone confirm what do they eat?
Thanks.

If they are supposed to eat zooplankton, then you need to get ahold of some of that (petco carries in in a jar form in the fishfood section) because they phytoplankton is veggie, while the zoo is meat...so yeah, they'll eat it, but it's not going to allow them to live to their full potentual and be healthy and all that.
