I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.


When I saw the thread title I immediately thought it was the Irukandji jellyfish, which is so venomous and painful that people often die. It's like a tiny box jellyfish ... about a half-inch each dimension, clear and therefore hard to see.

Fortunately, this was a different jellyfish.
