A jellyfish retracted its tentacles:
This is a normal response after feeding. Tentacles bring in food particles.
A jellyfish turned inside out and resembles a blown-out umbrella:
This is referred to as inversion. This is likely due to a big change in water
temperature, salinity or poor water quality, which is often caused by a
buildup of jellyfish waste or uneaten food. Use a siphon/vacuum hose or
feeding pipette to remove uneaten food and waste from the aquarium to
prevent further water quality decline. Do your weekly 50% water change.
With proper cleaning and attention to water parameters, jellyfish can
recover. Sometimes food particulate can get stuck in the aquarium’s black
sponge pad. When doing a Water Change, on a monthly basis, take the
sponge pad out and wring it out in saltwater you drained from doing a Water
Change. This is to remove excess food particulate that may be rotting to
decline your water quality. Do not clean this sponge pad with freshwater, as
this is where the nitrifying bacteria responsible for the biological filtration of
your aquarium primarily live and doing so would decimate the population.
The salinity is rising:
Water evaporates; salt does not, so salinity levels can rise in your tank
as the water level drops over time. To correct this, add a small amount of
Reverse Osmosis/Distilled fresh water, to bring the water level back into
the minimum and maximum slit. Evaporation can be reduced by ensuring
aquarium lid is snuggly in place.
Pump is noisy:
Ensure the pump is not touching the LED or the sides of the base as this can
cause a vibration noise. Airline tubing should be tight around connections.
Pump should be seated on rubberized feet.
Water flow is weak:
Ensure the pump is functioning properly. Make sure the airflow control valve
is attached and adjusted correctly. The airlines should be attached to the
pump securely and free of kinks to promote the proper flow.
Ensure that there is not any build-up of salt inside of the Rigid Airline Tubing
(the hard, “L” shaped plastic tubing). If there is, removing the Rigid Airline
Tubing and rinsing it with warm water should help remove any salt buildup.
Check to see if the airline has stretched around the connections and leaking
air. If it has, trimming a small portion of the airline and removing some slack
can easily fix this.
