Cool Jellyfish

Anyone looking to get involved and test the waters of delving into the water(no pun intended) in the land of jellyfish-check out this website...Midwater systems.com.
Has everything you need to get started from filters, tanks, lights and even some nice jellyfish. Check out the price tags though-WOW-
Nice frag tank as well.
I think it would be awesome to have a jelly tank with actinic or as they display a 20000k bulb. I don't know how demanding they are etc, but it may be worth a try. i wonder if they can be kept in a hex tank?
They are supppose to be held up in the water column and not be allowed to hit the side of the glass or obviously sucked up in the filter-but it would be kind of neat.
Local public aquarium in Connecticut has a big jellyfish tank set up...cool!!!!

A jellyfish tank would be sweet. I've posted that site before. Makes you want to DIY it, eh?

Not sure if a hex would work, I think everything has to be rounded.

I agree, although jellys would be pretty cool but in my opinion we are not really at the stage to keep them happy in a home aquarium enviornment.
