Jellyfish

[urlacher54]

i was at my local aquarium here in cincinnati The Newport Aquarium (actually northern kentucky) and it is really a fine one. They have a really cool jellyfish section that has 7 or so tanks that are maybe 48" tall 48"wide and maybe 5 inches deep. they were lit with black lights and looked awesome....i know the Shedd Aquarium in chicago also has a few cool jellyfish tanks.....
but does anyone know if it is possible to have one in your home....i think it would be pretty unique...but ive never seen or heard of anyone having one. nor have i ever seen jellyfish at my LFS. anyone know anything?

just curious

If I recall correctly they require a fairly large tank, and a high current so they can move around.

They are a craze in japan. Many people keep them there. You need a strong current and I think a refugium so the microorganisms could thrive cause thats what they eat.
