What is a group of jellyfish called?

Asked by HungryGuy (16044points) December 19th, 2009

You know…like a group of lions is called a “pride” or a group of cows is called a “herd.”

@Hypocrisy_Central- Well, that’s not very nice.

So what should you do if you’re swimming in the ocean, and suddenly discover that you’re in the midst of an answerbag of jellyfish?

AstroChuck's avatar

@HungryGuy- That’s pretty much what I’ve been doing for the last two weeks.
