I'm trying just about everything on that tank including a dedicated uv sterilizer on it as well as a TWIN 80 WATT UV sterilizer after the sump.

If you want to remove them, mechanically is probably the best way. They can't really control the direction that they swim in so they will most likely end up going through your skimmer or sump pumps, which they won't survive.
A net is probably the simplest route. A filter sock on your sump inflow will get them too.

Where did you get the live rock they came in on?

The live rock was shipped to me directly from Bali. Not sure if I saved any money though the rock was free but shipping works out to be $14.00/kg.

My question is where is Water Valley, AB? I'm currently living in Sparwood B.C.

Wow! Someone should go over to your place with a HD camcorder to film this! Should be hugely interesting! Keep us posted, please.

Default jelly fish

they look like upsidedown jelly fish-they will grow to about 5/8 of an inch and are completly harmless-they feed on light and plankton but nothing i know of will eat them.if you have bright enough lights(metal halide or led)you can breed them and sell them to your local store.they will come back every year.i use to have them before my tank crashed and they are fairly interesting.they start out on a stalk under the rock and will eventually turn a translucent blue
