Upside-down jellies have a relationship with photosynthetic dinos, similar to coral and their zooxanthellae. Might be able to have it settle down in a high light area.

Sweet hitchhiker, you probably would need a more specialized tank to keep it. But still awesome, saves you some money lol

Yeah, my mistake lol. You are 100% correct on this, especially after the second vid with more of the stalked polyp stage growing in the tank. They must have been in there for at least a little bit to mature to this stage though correct?
