yeah, at first it was cuttlefish-esque,, but i’d go with jellyfish, don’t thing placentas light up like that

Ta.
I’d be more tempted to go for jellyfish as it seems to hold position against the current – I’m pretty sure I can see stuff moving in one direction there due to a current.
Initially I thought it to be some type of cnidarian (jellyfish or similar), but it seems to have pentameral symmetry, most likely making it an echinoderm.

They don’t call him Clever Jake for nothing, in fact they don’t call him Clever Jake at all.

another one of those things they don’t teach you in marine biology class…
Wow! That is certainly one of the weirder creatures I ever seen.. but there are many weirdos in the deep ocean.

Who wants to hold the dick?
Likely Deepstaria sp. It doesn’t have a thick bell.
“The rarely encountered deep-sea jellyfish Stygiomedusa gigantea is another solid candidate for “largest jellyfish”, with its thick, massive bell up to 100 centimetres (39 in) wide, and four thick, “strap-like” oral arms extending up to 6 metres (20 ft) in length”

Deepstaria is a genus of jellyfish known for their thin, sheet-like bodies.
Species of Deepstaria:
Deepstaria enigmatica
Deepstaria reticulum
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deepstaria
…………………………………………………………………………………………
Deepstaria enigmatica, is a jellyfish of the family Ulmaridae first described in 1967 by F.S. Russel. The bell of this jellyfish is very thin and wide (up to approx. 60 cm), and resembles a translucent, folding sheet or lava lamp as the animal moves. They are usually found in Antarctic and near-Antarctic seas but have been spotted in waters near the United Kingdom, at depths of 829 to 1830 meters.

That is what makes a killer wail
if it is like other whale penises then it is “controllable” as to the direction it goes to find the female.
