Jellyfish typically catch their prey continuously as they drift through the water, utilizing their tentacles to capture small fish, plankton, and other marine organisms. The frequency of catching prey largely depends on their environment and the availability of food. In nutrient-rich waters, they may catch prey several times an hour, while in less productive areas, it could be less frequent. Overall, their feeding is opportunistic and varies with their specific habitat and prey abundance.
