Leptoplanidae is a family of ctenophores, commonly known as comb jellies, which are notable for their distinctive rows of ciliary plates. These marine invertebrates are valued in the aquarium hobby for their bioluminescence and graceful, jelly-like appearance. They are typically found in open water and are known for their voracious appetite for small arthropods and plankton. Care should be taken to provide them with a suitable environment that mimics their natural habitat, with gentle water flow and ample space to swim.
