Artistic jellyfish is in the news

I thought I'd post this jellyfish from our onine gift shop and have some fun with jellyfish today. There's a new crop circle in England that's quite artistic and includes lots of circles! The image is a jellyfish! And, it's a nice one, too. If you'd like to commemorate this event with a plastic jellyfish of your own, check out the various sizes, colors and prices in Tapir and Friends Wildlife World! We ship anywhere!

Technically, jellyfish are now called "jellies," or "sea jellies," because they aren't real fish. But the name is so memorable, and so ingrained in our language, I hope it never goes away. Anyhoo, we don't want to confuse with something you put on your toast, do we?

Mellow Yellow Monday: No jellyfish loitering, please!

It's an unusual sight, but this plastic jellyfish seemed to like our deck and just wanted to hang out for awhile. It seemed friendly enough, although it didn't have much to say. "Stay for awhile," we suggested. "Would you like a drink?" we asked. "With salt please," it said, and after a rest and a bit of refreshment, it slipped back into its element and floated away.

You can visit this plastic jellyfish and its jellyfish friends here if you'd like :)

Or pop on over to Mellow Yellow Monday and chill with more things YELLOW!

New plastic jellyfish at Tapir and Friends

Our new plastic jellyfish is now online and ready to order. It's realistic and durable, and is just as interesting in the underside view below as it is in the upright view. We're pleased to add this wonderful sea creature to our extensive collection of sea life educational toys and collectible replicas.

New plastic jellyfish

Three new colorful plastic jellyfish are online in Tapir and Friends gift shop. Come take a look, and maybe take a couple of them home. They bounce on elasticized gold thread, you can hang them for parties or unusual home decor, use them to enhance school projects, and much more. They float right-side-up in your pool or tub looking almost like real jellyfish, and if they are turned sideways or upside down, they right themselves because the're heavier on the bottom. There's a sealed air sac under the bell, so this jellyfish doesn't depend on air staying in the float to keep it upright. The plastic is flexible, translucent, and quite attractive. We have four colors to choose from in the 3 1/2-inch size range shown here: the yellow-and-orange jellyfish pictured on the blog, a green one, a blue one (all three at the link above), and the light pink Pelagia jellyfish. The pink Pelagia glows faint green in the dark, the yellow-and-orange-one shown here glows bright green in the dark, and the other two don't glow, they just look nice in the light.
