The  Cassiopea  genus is an emergent focus for behavioral, ecological, and genetic research.  Cassiopea  ephyrae, a key intermediate in the life cycle of this benthic jellyfish, have been left out of much work on the genus. Here we investigate the  Cassiopea xamachana  ephyra response to six combinations of light and feeding regimes. We show that zero light condition results in fast bleaching of ephyrae and significant reductions in bell size and predation success. We also show that ephyrae starved in sub-compensation level light experienced only meager reductions in size over 42 days, and those starved in zero light were still largely recoverable at 28 days. Developmental trajectories on various metrics of  Cassiopea xamachana  ephyrae were significantly impacted by both light and feeding level in the first 42 days of life.
