     |  Jelliquarium - Are Jelly Fish The Next Big Thing?
Funny I was just at Monterey Aquarium over the weekend eyeing the small jelly fish tanks to see how the overflows worked....
Now I find this site dedicated mostly to making jelly fish tanks!  Is this the next big thing? |

Heh, I had a jelly once. Of course it died. Mostly because it kept getting caught in the filter. I just posted a little rant about someone getting fish before they research it and that is a prime example of one of my mistakes of not researching an animal before I bought it. This was years ago. I never thought of doing a jelly tank tho. It would be really cool! Hmmmm...........  _________ 125 Gal Reef.

It might be. I seem to remember reading an article about jellyfish in offices. They're supposed to be soothing to watch -- kind of like those small waterfalls and the stones that have water flowing over them that were so popular a few years ago. _________ -- SAW39 45 gal modified hex.
