they are not easy to come by. your best bet is to see if you can get a baby from a public aquarium.
It's tough. You need slow flow, a pretty crazy filter intake (can't suck up the jellies, but needs to obviously needs to draw in water). Fine mesh over surface skimmer boxes work, but you need to have very low flow. Bubbles are the devil, you can't have ANY AT ALL. So, you'll want to run a good sump for it. Lighting is variable....minimal to a lot is usually ok. Food is specific as well. Most places hatch their own brine cultures and feed 24 hour old brine daily. It works best.
Wait hold on..this might be a stupid question but here i go..
why do i need a filter? do jellys even produce waste?
And bubbles meaning air bubbles? why are they bad?
I was thinking those purple-ish lights that give the tank a luminous night time look!

yes they make waste and they don't usually eat all the food they get. they are not waste free. as a matter of fact i would say they need cleaner water than coral due to their sensitivity.
they are 99.8% water and will absorb pollutants very fast.
gotta clean fast.
