Jellyfish Art
Jellyfish Art's tanks are a unique interior decoration with special water flow patterns that help maintain the jellyfish pets for up to a year. First used in public aquariums, Jellyfish Art is now the market leader in providing Jellyfish aquariums to consumers, enabling people to own and maintain jellyfish as pets.
Jellyfish Art creates Jellyfish aquariums with specialized water flow patterns so the jellyfish will not get stuck in corners or sucked into filtration intakes. It provides frozen food high in fatty acids specifically for jellyfish. Home kits come with Moon jellyfish and supply of frozen brine shrimp to start.
