===Physical Characteristics===
In [[SpongeBob SquarePants (series)|the series]], jellyfish are featured very prominently. [[Jellyfish Fields]], a major location in the SpongeBob SquarePants universe, is home to over 10 million jellyfish, as seen in [[Jellyfish Hunter]]. The hunting and catching of jellyfish, known as [[Jellyfishing (Sport)|Jellyfishing]], is a popular hobby among sea folk, most notably [[SpongeBob]] and [[Patrick]] . It is similar to butterfly catching and is typically done only for fun/sport, with the jellyfish being released unharmed. Jellyfish appear in almost all SpongeBob video games, typically as basic enemies or background add-ons. They are usually caught using [[Jellyfish Nets]] or jars. They sometimes spook the [[Bikini Bottomites]], but never try to hurt them, unless in self-defense.

In [[SpongeBob SquarePants (series)|the series]], Jellyfish are portrayed in a stereotypically cartoonish manner and are typically pink in color, but remain physically similar to their real world counterparts.They are very small compared to main characters, approximately the size of a [[Krabby Patty]], though the sizes are inconsistent at times. Since [[Bikini Bottomites]] are stated to be only smaller than a human’s foot shown in [[The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie]], this would make jellyfish almost microscopic.
   
 
In the same manner as snails are likened to cats and worms are likened to dogs, jellyfish display many qualities of bees, even making a constant buzzing sound whenever they are present. They have been shown living in hives in "''[[Jellyfish Jam]]''". Jellyfish produce [[Jellyfish Jelly]] similarly like how bees produce honey. However their jelly is mostly stored within their own bodies with some excess jelly left in their hive. Jelly can be extracted commonly by milking or even making them sneeze. Jellyfish can also squirt their own jelly at will, usually to annoy or insult their target. Excessive loss of jelly causes them to lose their form, thus only a small quantity of jelly is taken at a time. A quart sized jar of jelly seems to be the safest amount of jelly taken from a single jellyfish without causing them harm. The color of the jellyfish also reflects the color of jelly that they will produce, though the exact flavor has never been stated. Nevertheless, Jellyfish jelly is extremely delicious.
Jellyfish live in Jellyfish Fields; they allow themselves to be caught (jellyfishing) by SpongeBob and Patrick while other times they sting them, which is a running gag. They are in tune with nature and have great rhythm. They are often displayed having typical sentience of wild animals though some have shown specialized knowledge including the ability to open windows, operate electronic music equipment, and imitate walking on the ground. Most jellyfish tend to float whimsically and aimlessly, but they can move incredibly fast and controlled, especially as swarm. At least 10 Jellyfish collectively can carry SpongeBob into the sky. They are a constant presence in [[Bikini Bottom]]. They also allow SpongeBob to squirt out [[Jellyfish Jelly]], which is especially tasty. While most others dare not trespass in Jellyfish Fields, SpongeBob loves them all. Likewise, most jellyfish see SpongeBob as an ally as they comforted him when [[The Sponge Who Could Fly|his dreams of flying]] were crushed and later calling on his aid to stop the [[SpongeBob's Last Stand|construction of a highway]] that would have gone through Jellyfish Fields.
 
   
 
Jellyfish's have potent stingers which can cause small painful sores when threatened, hurt, or annoyed, usually through direct contact of their stingers or sometimes short range static zaps. Characters in the series have been stung by them usually for comical effect. Enough stings in a small window of time can be mildly discomforting or even life threatening. One jellyfish in particular, [[Big Lenny]], is known to have fatal stings. However, SpongeBob has been shown grabbing their stingers without any hand protection and walking away without any stings, signifying that the jellyfish can choose when they want to sting someone. An ointment has been developed to alleviate jellyfish stings and is incredibly fast acting.

Character

Jellyfish are gelatinous, free-swimming creatures common throughout all oceans of the world. They can have any number of spots and appear in hives much like bees. They make jelly, in a similar manner to bees making honey. They can also sting like bees. However, unlike bees, they use electric tentacles to shock intruders.

A Common Jellyfish

Overview

Physical Characteristics

In the series, Jellyfish are portrayed in a stereotypically cartoonish manner and are typically pink in color, but remain physically similar to their real world counterparts.They are very small compared to main characters, approximately the size of a Krabby Patty, though the sizes are inconsistent at times. Since Bikini Bottomites are stated to be only smaller than a human’s foot shown in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, this would make jellyfish almost microscopic.

In the same manner as snails are likened to cats and worms are likened to dogs, jellyfish display many qualities of bees, even making a constant buzzing sound whenever they are present. They have been shown living in hives in "Jellyfish Jam". Jellyfish produce Jellyfish Jelly similarly like how bees produce honey. However their jelly is mostly stored within their own bodies with some excess jelly left in their hive. Jelly can be extracted commonly by milking or even making them sneeze. Jellyfish can also squirt their own jelly at will, usually to annoy or insult their target. Excessive loss of jelly causes them to lose their form, thus only a small quantity of jelly is taken at a time. A quart sized jar of jelly seems to be the safest amount of jelly taken from a single jellyfish without causing them harm. The color of the jellyfish also reflects the color of jelly that they will produce, though the exact flavor has never been stated. Nevertheless, Jellyfish jelly is extremely delicious.

Jellyfish's have potent stingers which can cause small painful sores when threatened, hurt, or annoyed, usually through direct contact of their stingers or sometimes short range static zaps. Characters in the series have been stung by them usually for comical effect. Enough stings in a small window of time can be mildly discomforting or even life threatening. One jellyfish in particular, Big Lenny, is known to have fatal stings. However, SpongeBob has been shown grabbing their stingers without any hand protection and walking away without any stings, signifying that the jellyfish can choose when they want to sting someone. An ointment has been developed to alleviate jellyfish stings and is incredibly fast acting.


Ecology

Jellyfish Fields, a major location in the SpongeBob SquarePants universe, is home to over 10 million jellyfish, according to what has been seen in "Jellyfish Hunter." However, some may drift into Bikini Bottom, but are seldom a nuisance to its denizens. The hunting and catching of jellyfish, known as Jellyfishing, is a popular hobby among sea folk, most notably SpongeBob and Patrick. It is similar to butterfly catching and is typically done only for fun/sport, with the jellyfish being released unharmed. Jellyfish appear in almost all SpongeBob video games, typically as basic enemies or background add-ons. They are usually caught using Jellyfish Nets or jars. They sometimes spook the Bikini Bottomites, but never try to hurt them, unless in self-defense.

They are in tune with nature and have great rhythm. They are often displayed having typical sentience of wild animals though some have shown specialized knowledge including the ability to open windows, operate electronic music equipment, utilize a pay phone, and imitate walking on the ground. Most jellyfish tend to float whimsically and aimlessly, but they can move incredibly fast and controlled, especially as a swarm, to chase down someone. At least 10 Jellyfish collectively can carry SpongeBob into the sky. Spongebob in particular is extremely fond of the creatures and never tries to intentionally hurt them. Likewise, most jellyfish see SpongeBob as a friend as they comforted him when his dreams of flying were crushed and later calling on his aid to stop the construction of a highway that would have gone through Jellyfish Fields.
