Peach blossom jellyfish is a primitive and lower invertebrate, and it is also the only small jellyfish that lives in freshwater. It was first born about 550 million years ago, much earlier than dinosaurs.
Research experts believe that peach blossom jellyfish is a veritable “living fossil” with high research and ornamental value.
The peach blossom jellyfish records the development of life on earth with its own unique life formation.
The life history of peach jellyfish is a generational alternation of asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. The polyp (the “childhood” of the jellyfish) has extremely low requirements on the environment, but once the jellyfish is isolated, it has high requirements on the environment and water quality.
When the environment is adapted, the polyps will naturally separate the jellyfish; when the environment is unfavorable, the polyps will be adsorbed underwater or in rock crevices for a long time to survive for generations.
In other words, peach blossom jellyfish can also be regarded as a “water quality identifier” in the biological world. They will only appear in a jellyfish state when the water quality reaches a certain standard.
