Do jellyfish eat octopus?
No. Octopus are high end predators. They enjoy arthrodpods -- crabs and the like. They're quite carnivorous and can occassionally catch small live fish. Jellyfish are almost never eaten at all. The exception is the pelagic Sunfish, which seems to be immune to a jellyfish's stinging cells.
Does the box jellyfish live in the benthic or pelagic environment?
Phytoplankton live near the surface of the ocean because they need sunlight like all green plants. They also need water and nutrients to live. Phytoplankton use water and CO2 to grow, but phytoplankton still need other vitamins and minerals, like iron to survive. When the surface of the ocean is cold, the deeper parts of the ocean bring these nutrients to the surface and the plankton live. But, when the surface of the ocean is warm, as in El Niño, the ocean does not bring as many of these essential nutrients and the phytoplankton die. That causes a major problem because phytoplankton are at the base of the food chain. So, when the population of phytoplankton is reduced almost the entire food chain is effected.

Is a box jellyfish endothermic or ectothermic?
Because box jellyfish, as with all other cnidarians, do not have blood, or a circulatory system, they can not be considered "cold-blooded." However, they are ectotherms whose body temperatures are equal to the temperature of the environment, which is usually very warm, as almost all box jellyfish are restricted to tropical waters.
