Planula of Northern Japan type Immortal Jellyfish

Immortal Jellyfish of this type take care of their eggs until eggs become planulae. At the beginning, I took picture of gonads from under umbrellas, so you can see the situation of their care. As to the body colors of planulae which began to swim, there are three kinds: blue-purple, brown, and cream.. Blue-purple ones are the most. Regardless of the body olor, the color of the proceeding front end is whitish and the body color becomes deep gradiently toward the rear.
