it is but you have to install sometihing to make the tank round, you cant have any corners bc they will get stuck in them. the flow also has to be cut down alot bc you dont want to blow them all over the place and all apart. they need to be kept in a tank all by themselves, if you want to get them get a bunch and make it a jellyfish tank

Thats kind of a neat Idea, wonder if you could get some 12" to 24" diamerter clear acrylic tubing to keep some small ones in a regular reef tank.

thats what you do. you take acrylic and bend to fit the corners and glue in. then you slow down the return pump and powerhead and position so that the flow is circular. they will ride the current and look so cool especially under blue light

They need extensive lighting and pretty much a tank to themselves. Check out the Monterey Bay Aquarium tanks and you'll see they're always kept by themselves. It would still be a cool tank, but really should only be the jellies and nothing else.
