One is photosynthetic... so I wont go into that.

But, the other species are not, they feed on food.

I dont know if it helps, but I'll tell you what they do:

They have them in cicular tanks, with slow water circulation. The water quality, of course, is spot on. Nitrates about 5ppm. They have aobut 10 or so in a tank that must be about 200 litres I guess. They feed twice daily: One group gets fed copropods (about 20ml of dense copropod solution), the other brine shrimp napuli (about 500ml of less dense solution).

Hope yours is still alive

Also I have a small (and I mean really small) snowflake eel in the tank. When the jellyfish got stuck, the eel started to play "tear the jellyfish up" game. So, not too much of a loss price wise, but still sad to no longer have it.
