Hi all,

We recently purchased a jellyfish from Gulf Specimen Marine
Lab<http://www.gulfspecimen.org/catalog/specimens/cnidaria/jellyfish.htm
l>located
in Florida, and which was suggested to be either
*Chrysaora quinquecirrha* or *Cyanea capillata*. We would like to know
the
species name. Could someone help us?
Here I attached some pictures.

Thank you very much in advance.

Best,
Ehsan


PS: the little orange-red stuff are eggs and larvae
