ʻO nā iʻa wai wela a anuanu pū kekahi

I ke kauwela i loko o kekahi mau hale kūʻai holoholona a lākou, i loko o kā lākou aquarium, iʻa o nā ʻano like ʻole i ka wahi like, i kekahi manawa iʻa i ka wela a i ʻole ka wai wela o nā ʻano ʻano like ʻole akā, no kekahi, i kekahi manawa, no ka mea ua ʻike ʻia he hapa a no ka mea ʻike ʻaʻole lākou e hakakā, iʻa wai anuanu me nā iʻa wai wela.

ʻO ka iʻa, i ke kauwela manawa, ʻaʻohe mea hoʻomehana ma muli o ka lawa o ka wela o ke kaiapuni e mahana ai iā lākou iho a pili i ka mālama kālā. ʻO ia ke kumu e hoʻāʻo ai kekahi e kūʻai iʻa o nā ʻano ʻelua a hoʻāʻo e hoʻomaʻa iā lākou i kā lākou aquarium, akā hiki iā ʻoe ke loaʻa i nā iʻa wai wela a anuanu hoʻi?

Inā haʻi wau iā ʻoe i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo, e pau nā mea āpau pili i ka laki a ka ikaika o ka iʻa iho. Aia kekahi iʻa wai anuanu e hiki ke hoʻololi i ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi mahana kiʻekiʻe ma mua o kā lākou maʻamau ʻoiai hiki i nā iʻa wai mehana ke hoʻololi i ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi mahana haʻahaʻa ma mua o ka maʻamau. Eia naʻe, pono e hoʻokō ʻia kēia mau mea āpau mai ka wā ʻōpio, no laila nui ka poʻe i kali no ka hiki ke kūʻai aku i nā pua iʻa.

ʻO ka ʻōpio, ʻo ka liʻiliʻi, ʻoi aku ka lahilahi akā hoʻomaikaʻi maikaʻi mai ka hoʻomaka. ʻO ke ʻano hana e hoʻomaʻalahi iki i kāu mahana, ʻaʻole i ka manawa hoʻokahi. ʻO kahi laʻana, inā he 22 kekelē kou mahana, e hoʻohaʻahaʻa iki mākou i kēlā mahana a ma kahi o 20 kekelē a ʻoi. A ʻo ka mea like e hānai iā ia no ka iʻa wai anuanu.

E like me kaʻu i ʻōlelo aku ai iā ʻoe, ʻaʻole ia he mea maʻalahi e hana a make paha ka iʻa i ke kaʻina. ʻO ia ke kumu e manaʻo nui ai he mea paʻakikī ka loaʻa ʻana o nā iʻa o nā ʻano ʻokoʻa like ʻelua. No laila e haʻi wau iā ʻoe: paʻakikī ka hiki ʻole, ʻaʻole.
