MONTEREY AQUARIUM OPEN SEA
Aquarium's largest exhibit, a place where tuna speed past, sardines swarm in huge, glittering schools and sea turtles swim lazily across the 90-foot window.

JELLYFISH / JELLIES
Jellyfish and comb jellies are gelatinous animals that drift through the ocean's water column around the world. They are both beautiful—the jellyfish with their pulsating bells and long, trailing tentacles, and the comb jellies with their paddling combs generating rainbow-like colors.

FAIRY WRASSES
The various species of Cirrhilabrus wrasses are found in the wild from the Red Sea through the Indian Ocean and across the Pacific to the Pitcairn Islands, as far north as Hawaii‘i and the Ryukyu Islands of southern Japan.

TENTACLES
Octopuses, squid, cuttlefishes and nautiluses are cephalopods — related to snails and slugs. They're found in the world's ocean at all depths. They can be colorful or transparent and range in size from less than an inch to more than 50 feet.
