Simply put - No. A jellyfish requires a high level ofmaintenance and it also requires rather specific tanks. Jellyfish require a constant flow of water to avoid getting "stuck" in places throughout the tank.

If you go to an Aquarium you'll find Jellyfish in column tanks, or in circular tanks. Never in a standard rectangular tank.

You need to use special filters for the constant flow as mentioned. They also have a short life span and can live from several months to few years... It's a large layout for something which could die at any time due to ill care.

Typical Jellyfish setup costs a lot of money, probably starting around 2000-4000 POUNDS and around 5000 DOLLARS. Not for the faint hearted.

If you keep a Box Jellyfish and handle it incorrectly then you literally can die. Good Luck!

How does a jellyfish know what they are doing with no brain?

Essentially, we would presume that a jellyfish would not know or think about what it's doing. A jellyfish would go on its instincts. You have to remember that a jellyfish still has neurons, but it will not have a center of control of these neurons (which we call the brain). Thus, the jellyfish would not think to attack another fish and eat it, its neurons will simply react to the closeness of a fish and engage the jellyfish in this behaviour of killing and eating its pray. It is done pretty automatically. However, I do not know if the jellyfish would be able to learn with no brain. It can adapt to the environment, but can we make it learn specific behaviours?? So basically jellyfish are like robots, they run on autopilot.
