Can you house Jelly fish and a Chocolate Chip Starfish in the same tank?

Hiiii! I about to get my chocolate chip starfish in a few weeks and was wondering if Jellyfish are compatible tank mates.

Possibly.

 

But you can't have a jellyfish in a tank that has corners.  Evolution never taught them corners, so they get stuck.

You need a dedicated tank for Jellyfish and they need cooler water, 66F-74F.

Any recommendations for tank mates?

Keeping jellyfish is uncommon, so I don't really know much about it....other than the corners bit, which excludes them from every "normal" tank, which universally have 90º corners. 🤷‍♂️

 

Someone else might chime in tho!
