My Jellyfish- Video Update!

A lot of things have been happening lately with my jellyfish. First of all, I got some babies in my moon jellyfish breeding systems little breeding system!

My Thinkjellyfish Moons Are Doing Fantastic!

My Baby French Moons Are The Same!

                             

Polyps, More Polyps!

In case you don't know what a polyp is, it is basically a jellyfish making machine. The polyp is a big part of the jellyfish life cycle, as the video shows here:












The polyp is sexually produced by two jellies and the polyp then makes baby jellyfish asexually when the right conditions are present. As odd is it is, the polyp never becomes a jellyfish itself.

I have seen polyps (and baby jellyfish!) in my tank before, but I have had a little bit of a outbreak in the amount of polyps I have. Hopefuly I can give some of these to Travis Brandwood so he can raise them to sell on Thinkjellyfish!

Upside Down Jelly Baby!

I was sitting down on my laptop looking at my upside down jellies. I saw something super small and moving. At first I thought it was just a shrimp, but sure enough it was a baby upside down jellyfish. It is already 3-5 weeks old and I did not notice it until now. It is a very healthy little guy.


Video comming soon!

Upside Down Jelly Problem

My upside down's jellyfish water turned pure green, so I put in the "GREEN KILLING MACHINE" to help clear the water. Several months and a no longer green tank later a jelly got sucked up. He was my favorite jellyfish and swam around almost all the time. I was very dissapointed to see he died. We live we learn, as a thinkjellyfish customer once told me.

The GREEN KILLING MACHINE gets rid of cruddy green water in aquariums.

Baby Moon Jellies From France + More Updates

I got a shipment a few weeks ago of some baby moon jellyfish from France. They were about the size of a quarter when I got them, and they are growing like nuts. I have three of them, in with some moons from the San Francisco area bay. The ones get along with the San Francisco Moons, even though they are around 30 times bigger :)
I also got some hermit crabs and snails from Jellyfish Art- AWESOME for jellyhome tanks from thinkjellyfish. Those little guys clean up the tank even better than a water change could do. My gravel is sparkling clean!

   Now here are the differences in the moon jellies. The Jellyfish in the blue backround is the San       Francisco moon jellyfish, and the 2nd picture is a French moon jellyfish.

Babies!!!

I have a run-down jellyfish tank that had a few moons die it it and they left some poylps. Just when I thought the poylps were never going to make baby jellyfish I saw one little lone ephyrae swimming around. They are moon jellyfish ones. After a little search, I found about 19 of them. I though together a little tank for them and they are doing pretty good. They are very active, and very tuff guys too to survive the conditions in the old jellyfish tank. Well they did it, and they are in a nice clean tank now it good hands! I've never had to much luck with newborn jellies, but I'm wishing myself luck!

Updates, Updates!

Even more things have been going on with my jelly keeping recently. Here is the news:

 Upside Down Jellies

I ended up getting my 10 upside downs, and they are GREAT. They are doing great, but for some reason not as great for the past few days. I'm on the case, and what I'm seeing so far is that my heater broke and the water temp went down to a freezing 62 degrees, not a ideal tropical temp which could bring stress to the jellies since they are tropical. The company I bought the heater from sent me a new one, so I'm just going to try to keep them as warm as I can without the heater. The lighting is working out very well, but to make it even brighter I might add one more.

                                Californian ThinkJellyfish Moon Jellies

I got myself 4 moon jellies and a ThinkJellyfish JellyHome Moon Jellyfish Tank. These little guys are doing fantastic. However I can't call them little guys. These guys are HUGE and very healthy. The tank is working out very well for them, and the jellies are fairly active, but fully active at night. I have a RGB color changing bulb from ThinkJellyfish as well installed in there and it really brings out the beauty of this tank even more. The jellies are always suspended in the tank, which is nice. They never touch the bottom unless they swim into it actively. Video of these guys coming soon!

Well that is pretty much it! More updates coming next week hopefully along with some pictures and videos.
