    Yes, jellyfish are interesting, and if you want some that's cool, but I bet you could DIY a setup (AKA buy one from craigslist or something like that:)) for a lot less than what those people are selling their setups for.

    If you want to give it a trial run ReefScavengers has little upside down jellyfish. Of course you'll have to do your research on them. They may or may not do well in a system you already have instead of buying a new setup.

    Good luck

    Thats more doable. Reef Scavengers carry jellies, or they use too. They're a sponsor here.

    that would be pretty cool, i like the moon jellies cause they dont seem to require much in the way of fancy equiptment, plus they look cool. i dont think i could have him in any tank i have now though, they need a whole different set up for the filter so they dont get sucked in and all. i just like how majestic they are to watch, it would be a cool tank to have in the wall in the bedroom, very relaxing

    That is interesting but did you see the prices? Are they crazy? Over $15,000.00 for a set up for jelly fishes. Yeah Right!:eek:

    They do sounds great but it won't stay that size, they are quite a large jelly.
