ʻO ka iʻa goliath (Latin Hydrocynus goliath) a i ʻole ka iʻa tiger nui kekahi o nā iʻa wai hou maʻamau ʻole, kahi moʻohe muliwai maoli, ke makaʻu nei ka maka.
ʻO ka mea ʻoi loa, ʻōlelo kona inoa Lākina e pili ana iā ia. ʻO ka huaʻōlelo hydrocynus ʻo ia hoʻi "ʻīlio wai" a ʻo goliath ke ʻano "pilikua", i hiki ke unuhi ʻia he ʻīlio wai nunui.
A kāna mau niho, nui ʻoi ʻo nā ʻiʻo ʻoiʻoi e ʻōlelo e pili ana i kona ʻano. He iʻa nui, ʻino, niho hoʻi me kahi kino mana i uhi ʻia me nā unahi silila nui, i kekahi manawa me kahi aniani gula.
Noho i ke kūlohelohe
No ka manawa mua, ua wehewehe ʻia kahi iʻa tiger nui i ka 1861. Noho ʻo ia ma waena o ʻApelika, mai ʻAigupita a ʻApelika Hema. ʻO ka mea i ʻike pinepine ʻia ma ka muliwai Senegal, Nile, Omo, Kongo a me ka loko ʻo Tanganyika.
Makemake kēia iʻa nui e noho i nā kahawai a me nā loko nui. Makemake nā kānaka nui e noho i kahi kula me nā iʻa o kā lākou ʻano ponoʻī a i ʻole nā mea ʻaihue like.
He poʻe ʻaihue kuko lākou a ʻona ʻole hoʻi, alualu lākou i nā iʻa, nā holoholona like ʻole e noho ana i ka wai a me nā kolo.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia nā hihia o ka hōʻeha iʻa iʻa ma luna o nā kānaka, akā he kuhi hewa paha kēia.
Ma ʻApelika, makemake nui ʻia ka lawaiʻa goliath ma waena o nā kamaʻāina a me nā mea hoʻokipa no nā poʻe mākaʻikaʻi.
Wehewehe
Hiki i nā iʻa tiger nui ʻApelika ke piʻi i kahi kino o 150 cm a kaupaona a 50 kg. ʻOkoʻa mau ka ʻikepili ma nā nui, akā maopopo kēia, ʻaʻole hiki i ka lawaiʻa ke kōkua akā kaena.
Eia nō naʻe, he mau hōʻike kope kēia no ka kūlohelohe, a i loko o kahi aquarium ʻoi aku ka liʻiliʻi, ʻaʻole maʻamau ma mua o 75 cm. ʻO kona lōʻihi o ke ola ma kahi o 12-15 mau makahiki.
He kino ikaika, elongated kona me nā wili liʻiliʻi, manamana. ʻO ka mea nui loa e pili ana i ka hiʻu o ka iʻa ke poʻo: nui, me ka waha nui, me nā niho nui a ʻoi, 8 ma kēlā me kēia ā.
Mālama lākou i mea e hopu a haehae ai i ka mea i hōʻeha ʻia, ʻaʻole no ka nau ʻana, a i ka wā o ke ola e hāʻule lākou i waho, akā ma kahi o lākou e ulu ana nā mea hou.
Ka paʻakikī i ka ʻike
ʻAʻole hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo Goliaths he iʻa no kahi aquarium home; mālama ʻia lākou wale nō i nā aquarium a me nā ʻano aquariums.
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, maʻalahi lākou e mālama, akā ʻo kā lākou nui a me ka voracity e hiki ai iā lākou ke hiki ʻole i nā amateur. ʻOiai hiki ke mālama ʻia nā ʻōpio i loko o kahi aquarium maʻamau, ulu lākou me ka wikiwiki a laila pono e hoʻolei ʻia.
ʻO ka ʻoiaʻiʻo i ke kūlohelohe, ulu ka hydrocin nunui a 150 cm a hiki ke kaupaona ma kahi o 50 kg. Hoʻokahi ka nānā ʻana i kona mau niho a maopopo koke iā ʻoe ʻaʻole ʻai ka iʻa i nā mea kanu.
He predator hana a weliweli kēia, he like ia me kahi predator kaulana ʻē aʻe - piranha, akā ʻaʻole like me ka mea i ʻoi aku ka nui. Me kona mau niho nui, hiki iā ia ke huki i nā ʻiʻo a pau mai ke kino o kāna mau mea i hōʻino ʻia.
Hanai ana
I ke kūlohelohe, hānai ka iʻa tiger i ka iʻa a me nā mea hānai liʻiliʻi, ʻoiai ʻaʻole ia he manaʻo ʻaʻole ʻai ia i nā mea kanu a me nā detritus.
Loaʻa i nā ana, ʻaʻole lākou e hoʻowahāwahā i kekahi mea. No laila ʻoi aku ia o kahi iʻa omnivorous.
I loko o ka aquarium, pono ʻoe e hānai iā ia me nā iʻa ola, ʻiʻo mōʻaukala, ʻōpae, nā iʻa iʻa. I ka manawa mua, ʻai lākou i ka meaʻai ola wale nō, akā i ka wā e acclimatized lākou, hoʻololi lākou i ka paʻahau a me nā mea kuʻi.
ʻAi pū nā ʻōpio i nā ʻōpala, akā i ko lākou ulu ʻana, pono ia e hoʻololi i nā pellets a me nā granule. Eia naʻe, inā hānai pinepine lākou i ka meaʻai ola, hoʻomaka lākou e haʻalele i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe, no laila pono e kāwili ʻia ka papaʻai.
Ka mālama ʻana i loko o ka aquarium
ʻO ka goliath kahi iʻa nui a predatory, i maopopo leʻa. Ma muli o ka nui a me ka maʻa o ka poʻe moekolohe i ka moekolohe e noho nei i kahi ʻohana, pono lākou i kahi aquarium nui loa.
2000-3000 liters ka palena iki. Hoʻohui i kēia i kahi ʻōnaehana kānana ikaika loa a me ke duct, ʻoiai ke ʻano o ka hānai ʻana me ka haehae ʻana i ka mea i hōʻeha ʻia ʻaʻole hāʻawi i ka maʻemaʻe o ka wai.
Eia hou, noho ka iʻa tiger i nā kahawai me nā kahe ikaika a aloha i ke au i loko o ka aquarium.
ʻO ka mea hoʻonaninani, ma ke ʻano he rula, hana ʻia nā mea āpau me nā snags nui, nā pōhaku a me ke one. ʻAʻole hoʻolei kēia iʻa e hana i nā kahakai ʻōmaʻomaʻo. A no ke ola pono i kahi ākea manuahi.
ʻIke maʻiʻo
ʻAʻole kolohe ke ʻano o ka iʻa, akā he makemake nui kona, a ʻaʻole nui nā hoalauna e hiki ke ola i loko o kahi aquarium me ia.
ʻOi aku ka maikaʻi e waiho iā lākou i loko o kahi pahu laha wale nō a i ʻole me nā iʻa nui a pale ʻia e like me ka arapaima.
ʻOkoʻa moekolohe
ʻOi aku ka nui o nā kāne a ʻoi aku ka nui ma mua o nā wahine.
Hoʻohana hānau
Maʻalahi ke kuhi ʻaʻole lākou e hānai ʻia i loko o kahi aquarium, ʻo ka hapanui e hopu ʻia i nā waihona kūlohelohe a ulu.
I ke kūlohelohe, he mau lā wale nō ko lākou kupu ʻana, i ke kau ua, i Kēkēmapa a Ianuali paha. E hana ai i kēia, neʻe lākou mai nā kahawai nui a i nā keiki liʻiliʻi.
Hoʻomoe ka wahine i kahi nui o nā hua manu ma nā wahi pāpaʻu ma waena o nā mea ulu nui.
No laila, noho ka hatching fry i ka wai mehana, ma waena o ka nui o ka meaʻai, a i ka hala ʻana o ka manawa, lawe ʻia lākou i nā kahawai nui.
