Don't they need a kreisel tank to keep jeelyfish? Some website about custom made kreisels in LA said that a tank costs US$5000.00. It holds 20gallons of chilled seawater with all the life support included, as well as, lights, pump and chiller. :blink: chor ah!

doesn't have to cost that much- just need to find a tank with no corners(which can only be done in acrylic), filtration built in(be it round the tank-cost factor,or external), a chiller & very important FOOD.

have a look at underwater world's jelly fish tank & u know the design idea.

But there are still problems- a regular one is that the tentacles keep getting tangled up & have to be cut apart due to the space constraint of the tank.

They feed dahpnia & rotifiers.

A corner filtration won't work very well with jellyfish because of the presence of the inlet for the filtration unit. The jellyfish can get stuck there.

Jon from Coral Farm is coming for our Reef Club gathering.

He's a marine biologist now with Coral Farm. He used to work for Underwater World and if I am not wrong... he helped design the jellyfish tank!

He would be an excellent source of such info for you jellyfish freaks.. heh! ; Me too!

You will need to custom build a Kreisel tank for jellyfish... that's the only tank configuration you can keep.. do a search on this forum for Kreisel, it was covered before.
