The Phuket News is reporting several Blue Bottles (Portoguese Man-O-Wars) found on west coast beaches. I don't recall that ever happening here before. PG has the story now: http://www.thaivisa....19#entry4501019 #27

I am a bit surprised we don't see them more as they are circumtropical. Their distribution includes the Indian Ocean. #29

I positively hate jellyfish in general and the poisonous ones particularly.
It is close to a phobia. Are they good for something? Are there ways to get rid of them, apart turtles? Edited by manarak, 2011-06-20 14:30:28. #30

Authorities should put a bounty on the very toxic ones. 200 or 300 baht a pop, it would give some thais an opportunity to make money. Edited by manarak, 2011-06-20 14:36:21. #32

Last year I saw an anemone eating a jellyfish at Chumphon Pinnacles. It had swallowed it tentacles first, only the top of the bell (~20cm diameter) was still visible (surprised it could fit it in). Some rabbit fish also eat jellyfish, they pick the bell to pieces and leave the tentacles.
