how they move seanettle jellyfish drift threw the water. but when the jellyfish wants to go vertcal they use thier muscles and contract its bell making smaller space under the jellyfish , forcing water to exapt threw an opening. and that ruthem allows some regulation of verticl movment.--68.88.77.202 20:30, 30 January 2006 (UTC)emma--68.88.77.202 20:30, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

Sting treatment

Why was sting treatment removed from the article? --86.127.41.162 16:48, 2 March 2006 (UTC)

I added sting treatment to this thread, as I was recently stung and did not know what to do. This is a very common jellyfish in the gulf of mexico, and sting treatment should have a place here! 209.142.160.93 19:08, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Is this the one?

Is this the species that is commonly found in the Northumberland Strait?--Sonjaaa 19:04, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Genus vs. Atlantic species - Separate articles?

The present article attempts to provide an overview of the genus and also be the sole source for the Atlantic species, while the Pacific species has its own article. I'll suggest that it may work better to divide this article into two articles, one a more condensed overview of the genus, mentioning both species (and perhaps the others) and having a genus-level taxobox, and the other being a stand-alone article on the Atlantic species only (parallel to the article on the Pacific species), with the present species-level taxobox transferred there. For the genus-level article, the scientific (Latin) name of the genus might be the better choice of title, with "sea nettle" becoming a disambiguation page referring to the genus, the two North American species, and other uses of the term.--LarryMorseDCOhio (talk) 07:20, 12 August 2011 (UTC)

Outdated/Lack of References; Defense Mechanisms Category and Humans

This article is in need of references for stated information. Further, the NOAA reference link is out of date/no longer exist.

The human interaction under defense mechanisms requires further citation. I believe it should be grouped into a separate category. Treatment of a sting from a sea nettle may reference an outside page, i.e. webmd, and specific treatment discussed can distract from the actual description of the Atlantic Sea Nettle's stinging properties/defense mechanisms.
