Moon Jellyfish tank log

I'm excited that I finally got my hands on some jelly Fish! I figured I would share my journey of my Nano jelly tank!

Week1: the tank has arrived

A month later.. tank cycles. Jelly time!

How hard are these things to care for?

How often do you feed them?

Thanks! So far feed once a day. Small weekly water change or what I'm trying is just sucking out. Any uneaten food from
The bottom which gives it a micro daily water change. . Otherwise they are pretty simple

Can jellyfish be happy? Are they even aware of their existence?

I know what you mean though, they certainly look content and peaceful.

One can only assume so! They don't really have a Brian just a basic nervous system. I would assume as long as they have clean water and a full belly they are Happy

I put together a little video with clips from my phone. Enjoy

Nope. I have a heater on the lowest possible setting for stability. Otherwise just room temp

Just wondering because I was told that moon jellies need a lower temp. My wife wants an orbit. I don't know anything about taking care of jellyfish.

what do they suggest the water parameters be at for the jellyfish?
can you use regular reef salt?
My girlfriend would love one of these tanks if I can use some of the supplies I already have for our reef tank

For salinity I target 1.020
Ph 8+ but to be honest I have never checked. They need very clean water so don't leave food rotting on the bottom. Suck it up and keep it clean!

I essentially do a daily water change when I suck up any left over food and it seems to be an excellent strategy

Well this new hatchery is the best thing ever for ease of feeding live baby brine. The jellys love it!
