"This is a Blue Button or Porpita porpita.

Although it is superficially similar to a jellyfish, each apparent individual is actually a colony of hydrozoan polyps  They each performing specialised roles – stinging and preying, defending the colony from predators, and producing more of their kind. Porpita porpita are also hermaphrodites, that is, they have both male and female reproductive apparatus.Do you think it is beautiful?"
