Is this correct?

I've no idea but it is a beautiful photo

How beautiful!
Where was this? What time of year? How big?
We have many sea jellies in Florida and they seem more prominent in the Fall.
They don't look like yours though

I took this picture in October 2013, Savu Sea in Indonesia. The jellyfish was approx. 40-50 cm long.

Great shot!

I know I am late to the party, but have the same question:
I have a very similar shot, same species of fish (which i agree with your input), but I have narrowed it down to Thysanostoma thysanuran or Thysanostoma loriferum. This is the only site, with a scientific background that has any details of this jellyfish. It is in Chinese, but a translator works good. http://fishdb.sinica.edu.tw/chi/importpic.php?id=T04

I've narrowed down a similar shot to either Thysanostoma loriferum or T. flagellatum. It seems an expert would need to have one to determine the difference. I'm going with Thysanostoma loriferum.
