Section 6. Choosing Your Jellyfish

This aquarium has been designed to maintain the correct flow and water filtration to
allow you to keep most species of jellyfish. The limiting factors when choosing jellyfish
species are:
Temperature
When choosing your jellyfish, you first need to know that maximum and minimum
temperature of the room where the aquarium will be placed. Once you know this
information you can choose a jellyfish species that will thrive within that temperature
range. The Orbit 20 has external connections allowing the tank to be connected to an
external chiller or filter. When connecting your aquarium to an external device please
refer to Section 2.
Size
Various types of jellyfish are available on the market but many of them grow to large
sizes. It is important when choosing jellyfish that you consider its rate of growth and
maximum size.
If you choose to keep jellyfish with a very small maximum size, you can feed heavily but if
the jellyfish you keep can grow to a large size, it is important to balance its food intake.
This way you can keep its growth slow ensuring you can keep it in your Orbit 20 aquarium
for as long as possible before it has to be rehoused or returned to the pet shop.
Please check our 'Jellyfish Husbandry Guide' for more information on jellyfish species and
their husbandry requirements.

Section 7. Aquarium Cleaning and Maintenance

Keeping your Orbit 20 jellyfish aquarium cleaned and well maintained will prolong the life
of your jellyfish and your aquarium
IMPORTANT: Under no circumstances should:
a.
detergents, spray cleaners or any other chemical agent be used on or near
the aquarium.
Why? Using such materials can harm the inhabitants and/or damage the
acrylic finish and tank construction. Any such use will invalidate applicable
warranties.
b.
excessive pressure be used when cleaning, nor any form of harsh abrasive
material be used.
Why? The use of such materials may damage the vulnerable acrylic
surface impairing its clarity and tendency to resist further biofilm
accumulation.
