ʻO ka loko o Wright
ʻO ka pondweed a Wright, ka inoa ʻepekema ʻo Potamogeton Wrightii. Ua kapa ʻia ka mea kanu ma muli o ka mea ʻike huaʻai ʻo S. Wright (1811–1885). ʻIke ʻia i ka ʻoihana aquarium mai 1954. I ka wā mua, ua hoʻolako ʻia ma lalo o nā inoa like ʻole, no ka laʻana, Malay pondweed (Potamogeton malaianus) a i ʻole Javanese pondweed (Potamogeton javanicus), i hoʻohana nui ʻia, ʻoiai ua hewa lākou.
Ke ulu nei ia ma ka Hikina a me ka Hikina Hema o Asia i loko o nā waihona me ka wai paʻa a i ʻole ma nā ʻāpana o nā muliwai me ke kahe mālie. ʻO ka mea maʻamau i ka wai alkaline paʻakikī.
Hoʻokumu ka mea kanu i kahi rhizome kolo me nā pūpū o nā aʻa. E ulu ana nā kumu lōʻihi lōʻihi mai ka rhizome. I nā kūlana maikaʻi, ulu ia a hiki i 3 mau mika ke kiʻekiʻe. Aia nā lau ma kēlā me kēia whorl. ʻO ka lau lau, a hiki i ka 25 knm ka lōʻihi a hiki i ka 3 knm ka laulā, he ʻano laina laina me kahi ʻaoʻao wavy iki. Hoʻopili ʻia ka lau i ke kumu me kahi petiole a hiki i 8 cm ka lōʻihi.
He maʻalahi ka mālama ʻana, hoʻololi kūpono i nā kūlana like ʻole i ka wai mahana a me ke aʻa ʻana i kahi substrate nutrient. Manaʻo ʻia no ka hoʻohana ʻana i loko o nā loko a i ʻole nā aquarium nui, kahi e waiho ʻia ma hope. Ma muli o kona hiki ke ʻae i ka pH kiʻekiʻe a me nā waiwai dGH, ʻo Raita's Pond kahi koho maikaʻi loa no nā aquarium me Malawian a me Tanganyika cichlids.
