After having my 2g JellyFish Art nano tank and Jellys for about a year and a half I decided it was time to upgrade to the new larger 5g model! I added a few more jellys from Jelllys to make a total of 6 which look amazing in the tank! Moon Jellyfish are one of the easier types of jellys to keep and a great starter jelly.

Thank you without videos like these probably the first few jellyfish I got would have died luckily I haven’t lost any so far.
Could you put video on cleaning tank day or/and weekly as my Jellies do have a lot of left overs :/ and detailed instruction on their feeding?
This is really fun for the aquatic community. This is such a new and daunting concept of having jellyfish!

I had a jellyfish art tank about 10 years ago now.. Probably one of their first models (the round one). It was almost impossible to keep up with the water levels.. I'm hoping that some advancements have been made. Maybe the larger tank is the saving grace here. I spent a lot of my week back then trying to keep things balanced.. but it was a losing game. All of my jellies shrank down to the size of a penny and vanished. I hope the company has made this product more viable in 2023.
I so want to buy my own jellyfish !!😍
This is what I need! I'm from the Philippines and would love to have the cylinder and nano jellyfish. However, I dunno where to start. Hope you can help me! I love this video! 😍

Great video! I just bought the Nano 3 and have a very basic but important question. Once the water has been added and you need to leave for 2-3 weeks for the bacteria to grow should the pump be on or off?

Loved the entire video! But one question please! From everything I’ve learned, I’ve always been told to never mix the bag water and tank water. Is this only pertinent when you already have fish in your tank? Thank you so much for your help!
@luisbarragan8144

Maybe it’s to late to say this but: If you have a cycled tank with fish of any kind you do not put the water from wherever you bought your fish or whatever you’re adding reason of that is because that water may contain parasites or other bacteria from sick fish as you never know how fish are taken care of also it is recommended to have a quarantine tank to not add the new fish right away as the same thing they might be sick and spread what they have, it is recommended to have them there for couple weeks
How do you lower ammonia levels? Our tank was set up for two months, and our amonia peaked last night. The jellies are still doing fine, eating and pulsating fine. But I know they’d do better in cleaner water. We did a 45% water change last night. Still the same readings. :(
Hey devin , saw that at reef a palooza .. cool to see it up and running. I think you said you do your own brine shrimp hatching , how time consuming is that? And do you feed everyday?Just curious due to not always home.. I do have phytoplankton going and have found that very simple, actually have to much lol. Would like to start doing some Pods soon. Anyway I digress looking good, and look forward to some updates

A 10 gallon would give them enough room to grow and less stress ables them to stay healthy will promote a longer healthy life. But need a back up if power goes out to reduce their stress.

Soo can I feed them phytoplankton? Or do I have to do live brine shrimp?? Or copepods all the time?? And how often do you feed??
So the jelly bio starter says it speeds up cycling so that it only takes a few days. Would it still be recommended to wait 2-3 weeks even with that in mind?
Great videos. I'm curious about what you like about the 5 gallon versus 2 gallon tank? Curious if there are things you like about the 2 gallon better? What do you think are the most important factors to consider between these two tanks? Do you like the flow or movement of the Jellies more in the 5 g or 2g?
@ReefDudes
5 жыл бұрын
The 5G is the same Flow style, its just bigger. Only real big difference is there is 2 air uplift columns in the back so you can control the flow in the tank and through the filtration a little more separately where the 2g is all in one. Both great tanks! You can fit more jellys in the big one! hehe.. it really depends what fits best in your space.

If your drawing too much power for the gauge of the cord then yes it can heat up.. everything in this systems is extremely low power! its essentially a led light and an air pump.
if you don't have any aquarium and limited experience, would you still recommend going with this or starting with something else?
How do you clean the tank, and also how do you do a water change.
Hi, I had questions about keeping my aquarium. Despite what the description said on Amazon said about my salinity meter, it doesn't measure ppt, it measures ppm, however, I've found contradictory information over what ppm means. I thought it meant parts per million, but is that really accurate? The other problem is that I cycled the tank with blue-legged hermit crabs. But I haven't ever changed the water since then even though I plan to before I actually get a jellyfish to test things out, and I'm afraid that maybe that won't be enough, and that the crabs' shells may also be dangerous to the jellyfish. Should I put them somewhere else?
Thanks for the video!! Is it possible to have a jelly tank with live plants? I haven't seen many videos (none really), and I'm a huge plant nerd lol

Jellyfish are very delicate so you dont really want anything in there that they could bump into.,
I got the Jelly’s but they have sold out of the aquarium for a while now
I'm thinking about starting a jelly tank, but I have some question i hope you can answer for me. Do you keep the flow of the water on or off during the 2-3 weeks before the jellyfish arrive? And do you advise to make your own reverse osmosis water with help of an osmosis installation or do you advise to just buy it? (PS: love your account!)

Thank you! Yes keep the flow on form day one! you dont want stagnate water. I have always used RODI as its "pure" and which means less change of random chemicals, chlorines, nutrients ect making into your tank. also helps prevent algae.

Would love to get some more advice! Got the newest Cylinder 5 this week for my birthday, and have watched this video nearly 29 times haha! They didn’t provide salt for the brine shrimp, and there isn’t really good directions as to what to do next. We mixed the water, used the hydrometer and got the water to the right levels, but now do we add the bio starter? You already had cycled water, we are starting from scratch... that’s where I’m getting confused. Do we need the brine shrimp before we get the jellies to create the nitrates? Clearly, we need some expert advice. Would love to hear from ya! 🤙🏽

I can't answer this as an expert on care or anything but Biologically Speaking, Jellyfish don't have Ear's so the only reason Sounds would bother them is if you were somehow playing music that was at a Resonant frequency with their Bodies, in which case they would....blow up. But as far as i know that's extremely hard to do and you'd basically have to do it on purpose. They are 95% water so they should be fine with roughly any sounds since they lack a Brain and Ear's. For regular Fish, i don't think it'll bother them much, most Fish don't have ear's and if they do they don't function the same as our's because Water Density makes Sounds travel differently along with decreasing the range that the Sound can travel. In addition if you did have really loud music playing next to them, they would probably just assume the Earth is shaking or something similar and ignore it. The only aquatic species i can imagine Sound being an issue is Octopus.
