Does it matter that the tank isn't circular like the commercial kind? Can you keep live rock in a sump in this tank? Are you going to paint the edges? Do you have a species id? I like this a lot more than moons! How big is it? This is like AMA all over again, sorry for all the questions.

It has to be kinda circular. But a 100% circle is the best and very expensive. The design I made will work for jellys because the water is moving in a circular motion. Not sure about live rock.Yeah, I'm gana paint em later on. Yeah, its a Polyorchis jellyfish. Its small, about 1-1.5 inches just the body. Maybe a bit more. Its alright. lol

Oh yeah, I read polyorchis in the description and totally forgot lol. That is wicked! So do you wait on the guppy to get osmosis poisoning and throw it at the tentacles...or does the jelly eat it all by itself. I mean, I can't imagine the jelly being fast enough for the guppy.
And can we see chiller pics?

lol I'm waiting till the guppy gets a bit sick from the salinity lvl and throw it at the jelly.
Ya, the guppy got pretty damn close to the jelly but hasn't touched it yet.
Sure. I'll go take some right now.

The salinity is the same as a reef tanks.
It was free. Its DIY. Its the chillers that refrigerators use. Not the mini refrigerators but the huge refrigerators.
Right now its 62F.
