How many of you have experience with keeping jellyfish?
I'm working on building a kreisel aquarium for moon jellies.
I am also building a tank for their polyps and ephyra!
Have any of you kept jellies?

Did you know that there are jellyfish in elephant butte?
they are the only freshwater jelly in the world. Its called the Craspedacusta sowerbii.

Here's a few resources for the topic.

Very cool. I've not kept salt water fish yet, and we don't seem to have too many on the forum who have yet, so don't be surprised if you don't get much response. I'm interested in building the salt-water portion of the site though, so thanks for stopping by Smile

Jelly fish in Elephant Butte? Your kidding? WOW New research subject found.....

This is the first small jellyfish tank attempted.... its kinda weird though, the guy doesnt have financial backing so he is relying on donations. I had heard one of the limitations to Jellyfish tanks was the size. They needed to be very large with complex water filtration systems. If this guy can figure out a way to make it smaller and thus more afforable for the average aquariest... watch out!
