Feeding jellyfish provided by the aquarium requires quality water, food, light, containers and associated precautions.
1. Water quality
Small jellyfish like to grow in stable, clean water. They must change the water regularly and maintain the water temperature between 20 and 25 degrees. .
2. Diet
Small jellyfish are plankton and need small zooplankton as their main food.
3. Light
Small jellyfish need an appropriate amount of light and it is best to use soft light.
4. Container
It is best to use a round container for maintaining small jellyfish and not to use sharp containers.
5. Precautions
Do not overfeed small jellyfish, which will cause water quality to deteriorate and affect their growth. Avoid direct contact withc jellyfish, because certain species have stinging cells that can sting the skin. In short, taking care of small jellyfish requires patience and care to allow them to grow healthily.
How Jellyfish Reproduce:
Jellyfish are dioecious. The gonads are located in the stomach and are produced by the endoderm. The original species had a total of eight gonads on either side of the septum. There are 4 species without septa, and the moon jellyfish has 4 horseshoe-shaped reproductive glands at the bottom of the stomach pouch. They are often colored at sexual maturity, making them easy to identify. The germ cells are released into seawater or fertilized in the mouth and wrist. Fertilized eggs develop into free-floating larvae to the blastocyst stage, then attach to objects with their front ends and develop into polyps. thererves, called hollow-mouthed larvae.
Bowl mouth larvae will later undergo transversely split reproduction from top to base, called transversely split body. Later, the transversely divided body will separate from the parent body from the top to the base. form a juvenile jellyfish-shaped body, called a butterfly larva. The transverse body can live one to several years. Once all the transverse bodies have fallen off, it can reform into larvae, so the transverse body is asexual. reproductive stage.
