Jellyfish mesmerise in their own museum in Florida
With neon lights and mesmerising creatures, a museum in Pompano Beach, Florida, is believed to be the first in the US dedicated entirely to jellyfish. These ancient sea creatures have lived in the oceans for more than 500 million years, predating dinosaurs and trees. The nearly 10,000-square-foot (900 square meters) facility houses roughly 20 unique species with 21 different display tanks. The museum was founded by Ukrainian aquarium developers.
