Feasibility of the coral highlands

+0
−0

In the game Monster Hunter World, there is a place called the coral highlands. The coral highlands is one of the most spectacular things to look at in the game, having a resemblance to a ocean without the salty water, or any massive bodies of water at all except ponds and rivers.

The coral highlands are filled with massive corals, anemone-like trees and grass; the life forms there have some traits akin to real world sea creatures, like little glowing, floating creatures that look and act like little jellyfish, creatures known as wrigglers which act like little fish in the ocean and are known to dig communal holes, and many many more.

The environment itself does have a lot of ledges and tall hedges and many strong winds.

This, however, got me thinking:

  1. Is it feasible for a place like the coral highlands to exist?

  2. If not, could it be made in a lab setting?


Edit: In the game there is also a location called the rotten vale which is located right under the coral highlands. It is littered with dead bodies and rotting corpses, and it is said that it nourishes the coral highlands itself. I wanted to include this because it might help with feasibility.
