  1. I don't know why I know this...

    but jellyfish lack a brain and sensory organs, however, the cubozoan and scyphozoan jellyfishes (there are several different types) have small sensory structures (called Ropalia, if I remember right?).

    These little sensors detect mostly changes in light and gravity, but it is debated that they can also detect odors and vibrations.

    I doubt a jellyfish could hear the instruments like we do, but they may be able to feel the vibrations or resonance created by these instruments.

    Why do I know this?! LOL :)
