The '''Jellyshroom Cave''' is a [[Biomes|cave system]] found below the [[Grassy Plateaus]], [[Kelp Forest]], and [[Safe Shallows]].

Four entrances can be found at coordinates: (140, -86, -397), (-372, -98, -200), (-505, -150, 10), and (-724, -90, -9).

The area is explorable via the [[Seamoth]], but it is dangerous to do so without a [[Seamoth Depth Module MK1]] or higher due to the [[Biomes|biome]]'s depth. The [[Seamoth Perimeter Defense System]] upgrade is also advisable, but not needed, due to the [[Crabsnake|Crabsnakes’]] tendency to ambush the player from the Jellyshrooms themselves. 

Exploring the caves with the [[Prawn Suit]] is possible but challenging without the [[Prawn Suit Grappling Arm|Grappling Arm]] and/or [[Prawn Suit Jump Jet Upgrade|Jump Jet Upgrade]] to get back out of the caves.

== Description ==
The Jellyshroom Cave is a large cavern characterized by a dense population of huge, translucent, purple [[Jellyshroom]]s, along with structures such as stalactites and stalagmites.

The cave system has two predatory species and two prey species. The most notable of these are the [[Crabsnake]]s residing in the Jellyshrooms, and the [[Oculus]], both of which are found only in this biome.

[[Shale Outcrop]]s and [[magnetite|Magnetite]] can be found here, as well as various [[Large Resource Deposits]].

{{ExtraSpoilersection|The second [[Degasi]] seabase can be found here. The entrance at 140, -86, -397 is right above the [[Degasi Seabases]].}}

User 'Paul Torgal' requested cross-referencing of local environment scans with ideal habitat construction conditions. Displaying results.

- Large subterranean cavern with multiple entrances<br />
- Conditions support a unique microcosm of predatory lifeforms<br />
- Minor structural instability in cave walls<br />
- Extensive resource deposits

Average Environment Safety Rating: C<br />
Optimal Habitat Site Safety Rating: B

Site 7 has been selected as the optimal habitat construction site for the following reasons:

- Close proximity to one of the cave entrances, in case of emergency<br />
- Medium distance from predatory organisms<br />
- Stable foundations on which to build<br />
- Ready access to materials

A signal tracking the site has been created.

== Trivia ==
* The abundance of Stalactites suggests that these caverns were dry-standing for several million years, only later being flooded presumably when the ceiling collapsed due to erosion - this might explain why its native ecosystem is so uniquely different from all bordering biomes.
* The ambience noise is the same as the [[Blood Kelp Zone]]s.
* The Jellyshroom Cave is currently the only biome to feature Large Magnetite Deposits in the game.
