Jelly fish are carnivores which means they eat meat. A approximate life span of a Jelly fish is 1-5 years! Their scientific name is Medusozoa. The largest breed of Jelly fish are Lion's mane Jelly fish the smallest is the Irukandji Jelly fish! Did you know that 5% of their bodies are full of proteins muscles and 95% is water meaning they don't have brains, hearts or eyes! They can also be bioluminescent (which means they can produce their own light.

Octopuses have eight tentacles and if one gets chopped off it regrows.
They also have three hearts and the ink they squirt out when scared doesn't just hide them, the ink can irritate an animal when sprayed in their eyes.
Octopuses have blue blood, for them to live in very cold water their blood is copper based and created the color blue and lets them have more oxygen in their blood.
Octopuses mouth is in the middle of its tentacles and uses it to eat small snails, clams and fish.

They can come in all sorts of sizes, from 9 millimetres to 21 centimetres. Like spiders and ticks they are arachnids. Scorpions can be found in all sorts of biomes, but they are mainly found in deserts and semi-arid areas. The most lethal scorpion is The Death Stalker.

When spiders mate, the spider lays eggs in an egg sack. While spiders are known to spin webs and climb walls, some like the huntsman spider will spend their time on the ground. Many people are scared of spiders because of their venom. A spider is unlikely to attack you though. And the thing is, its not as if you are going to run into the world's most dangerous spider on your daily bushwalk. My personal favourite spider is the peacock spider. I like them because they are tiny and the male does a dance. If he doesn't do it correctly, he will be eaten.

When you open the hatch the spider comes out then he closes it they come out to feast. First they must set a trap at the door. When a bug steps in it, boom, they are dead because they are stuck and the trapdoor spider comes out to feast on their prey that got stuck. Also trapdoor spiders are invertebrates and this kind won't hurt humans like poor Miss Oryzak.

Good job, Ethan. That's pretty cool how you've shown the trapdoor spider hunting its prey. Try to capital letters for the beginning of sentences and full stops for the end of sentences next time.

Spiders can get as big as a dinner plate and that's called a bird eating spiders and you do not want to mess with that spider.

Spiders produce venom from their fangs which kills their prey. Almost all spiders are predators. There are several ways spiders hunt; some make a web out of a silk like material and some spiders jump at their pray. The smallest of full-grown spiders can be less than 4 mm, that's smaller than a pin! Most spiders have four eyes on their head but it can be more.

They are spongy   and don't have any bones which is an advantage for them since they can move their tentacles or so called feelers more easily. Jellyfish could have up to 80-90 feelers. They use their feelers to sting or paralyse their prey. They sometimes accidentally sting humans. Most Jellyfish can only survive for a few weeks but some can be immortal. Jellyfish are related to corals and sea anemones. There are about two hundred species of jellyfish all over the world. Some live in arctic cold areas and some live in very hot conditions which means that they can survive in all the oceans. They usually stay near or at the surface of the ocean. A typical jellyfish is shaped like a bell or an umbrella.

Oh I love that jellyfish GIF, Naythan! Well done on providing lots of detailed information about your invertebrate.

They are actually dark gray or black, which could look bluish in certain lights. They are most commonly called Black Melanie's.
The Axolotl (pronounced AX-oh-lot-ul) comes from Lake Xochimilco and Lake Caliche in Southern Mexico City. Its name translates to “water dog” from the Aztec’s Nahunta language, and it’s connected to the Aztec god, Axolotl.
If you’re interested in learning more about the Axolotl and are considering adding one to your aquarium, then please read on!species Name: | Ambystoma Mexicana
Family: | Ambystomatidae (salamanders)
Color Form: | Black or Dark Gray
Care Level: | Difficult–Expert
Lifespan: | 10–15 years
Adult Size: | 10–12 inches
Diet: | Worms, pellets
Minimum Tank Size: | 20-gallon (needs to be long)
Temperature: | 60º–64° F is ideal

Do Blue Axolotls Make Good Pets?

Axolotls do make excellent pets as they are fascinating creatures. They are curious and inquisitive amphibians that enjoy moving about and exploring their habitat. They don’t mind being watched by their owners and might even watch you back.This is what the Black Melanoid Axolotl is all about—its unique appearance! These Axolotls are dark gray or black without any other flecks or spots of color. They have frilly, feathery gills that fan out on either side of their necks, and they look like they are always smiling.
Another standout feature of these salamanders is they retain their limbs, which has given them their nickname, Mexican Walking Fish, although they remain in the water their entire lives and don’t really walk.
Another truly interesting facet of the Axolotl is that they can regrow limbs! If they lose their gills, eyes, or limbs, they regenerate and grow back. Amazing little creatures!

Moon jellies are one of the common jellyfish that you will encounter while in the Gulf of Mexico, however, they are the least dangerous for humans to come in contact with.

When a bee gets back from collecting pollen they go back inside their hive and inject the pollen in the little holes. Once all the holes are filled up with pollen, the bees put the pollen in mouth by mouth in till it turns into honey.   When a bee is harmed or thinks you want to kill it it will sting you and sadly die, but Not all bees will die when they sting you some will survive! The bees that go out working like getting the pollen are females. Did you know that bees have five eyes! Its incredible! As you know when bees fly around you they are very noisy the reason that is, is because they beat their wings 11,400 times in one minute! The weird and wacky thing about bees is that they FART!!!!!🤣 The queen bee lays 3,000 eggs each day. Sadly a bumblebee dies 28 days after they are born. Bees like to sleep 6-8 hours each night. Bees are so lucky because they never experience pain! Some animals actually don't have a heart but bees do. A single bee would weigh 00025 pounds which is nothing. Its weird how bees can sting animals/people much bigger than them. Bees are really cute and really friendly so if you ever happen to see a bee looking for flowers than help it find its way.🐝 THE LOVE OF BEES!!!!!

There are about 8,000 species, or kinds, of bivalves. They include scallops, cockles, clams, oysters, and mussels. Most bivalves live in the ocean, but a few species live in fresh water.
Scallops are known as bivalves because their shells have two halves, or valves.

some thing that is related to bivalves is a scallop .

Scallops are the creatures that build the fan-shaped seashells found on many beaches. Like clams and oysters, scallops are bivalves—mollusks that have a shell with two halves.

There are more than 400 species, or types, of scallop. Their main predators are sea stars and humans. Many people enjoy scallops, which may be eaten cooked or raw
