if you still want a jellyfish i suggest buying the upside down jellyfish. They require minimum feeding because like corals they are photosynthetic. You also dont need a special tank for them but you cant keep anything in that aquarium except upside down jellies cuz they have remote controlled stingers and will sting everything around them.

[@thejellyfishwarehouse5062]

Great video, hopefully you can learn to forgive the jellyfish with time! A couple of tips about keeping jellyfish that may be useful to everyone: when using dry jellyfish foods, make sure they are fully hydrated before feeding! We recommend letting the food sit in a cup of tank water for 5 minutes before feeding. Also with jellyfish foods: dry foods are super potent. Like serious jellyfish steroids. To prevent water fouling and overfeeding, feed them just a little each day. It takes roughly a fifth of the dry food to feed them compared to live brine shrimp. A lot of people make the mistake of over feeding their jellyfish. Keep the videos coming!

0:50 I think that shouldn't be allowed, you don't think clearly when you're drugged and in this case dont feel pain either, so the hospital should determine if it really is safe for the patient to sign out.

I was stung by a mystery jellyfish as a kid, too. It wasn’t life threatening, either, but not a good time. The tentacles wrapped all around my body. I think they used meat tenderizer on it.

I wish I had a couple for my anxiety.

I had a very large tank in my basement in london, which was a bit of a sin bin for old sea water, and pieces of collected rock which were in the process of decision making. there was no air pump or filter and it was generally clear. On one occasion I noticed one of the rocks had scyphistoma attatched and soon there were ephyra in the water. there was plenty of food available in such a large volume of water and very soon there were little moon jellyfish pulsing around. As you say facinating for a while, but I found the novelty run out of steam very quickly.
