The bell is separated from the dangling oral arms and both are washed in seawater before being scraped to remove the gonads and mucus. Dehydration is traditionally undertaken by sprinkling

The complex nervous system supports a relatively advanced sensory system compared to other jellyfish, and box jellyfish have been described as having an active, fish-like behavior. A fully grown box jellyfish can measure up to along each box side (or in diameter), and the tentacles can grow up to in length. Its weight can reach . There are about 15 tentacles on each corner.

Many different kinds of nematocysts are found in cubozoans. Although
