Craspedacusta Sowerbyi ("freshwater Jellyfish")

[Synaesthesia]

For those of you who haven't heard of these: http/nas.er.usgs.gov/queries/FactSheet.asp?speciesID=1068

These "jellyfish" (while not technically jellies, they're the closest freshwater have) are fascinating me. I would love to have a small tank of these beautiful organisms.

Has anyone seen these at local lakes? I live in Nevada and know they show up in nearby lakes, but I have no idea how to go about catching them.

Has anyone caught them? Cared for them? Any information whatsoever? Is it possible to purchase these?

Right, but I was wondering for example if anyone had seen them and in what part of the lakes (farther out or close to the shore), so I could determine if I needed to bring a fishing boat.
