Any jellyfish will need to be in a species tank. The Upside-down or Casseiopia jellies are probably the easiest to keep. They are light-requiring/photosynthetic jellies. I had one for about 6 months in its own tank but my wife kept feeling sorry for it so it went into the frag tank & got blown around into the rocks & damaged or sucked into the powerhead & damaged.

The are very hard to keep because of their delicate bodies (mostly water). They are prone to getting sucked into powerheads, so you'll have to put a sponge over your intake.

I bought two recently thinking they were Cass. jellies but turned out they weren't & any other type needs a specially designed cylindrical tank with no LR or powerheads, but with some flow to keep them suspended. These ones lasted a few weeks but eventually wasted away or got damaged from getting stuck on even the tiny salt-mixing powerheads I used.
