Hydrilla is a freshwater plant and is often sold for aquariums. It has been discarded into lakes in Florida and has become a pest, choking out normal lake plants and making lakes impassable to boats and impacting fish populations. Recently the problem has been addressed by biologists who have apparently found chemicals which discourage its rapid reproduction. During the 80s I lived on a lake in central FL that was infested as were many local lakes at that time. Everyone was encouraged to check boat motors for hydrilla before leaving and entering any lakes due to the rapidly spreading weed. Also aquarium owners were warned against "dumping" water into the water system - "chain of lakes". To find out what was done, one could do research on ponds and/or central Florida cities. MD
What else can I help you with?
Is the hydrilla a floating plant?
The hydrilla is a fully submerged plant.
What is consumer of hydrilla plants?

Is hydrilla a submerged plant?

What is a hydrilla?
A Hydrilla is a non-native plant that is a aquatic plant that is in the ocean. An aquatic/exotic water plant.
If freshwater and seawater meet at the mouth of a river which one sinks and why?
Seawater is more dense than freshwater. Therefore the seawater would sink lower than the freshwater. Ships do indeed stay higher in seawater because of the higher density or specific gravity of seawater over freshwater
What is the scientific difference between seawater and freshwater?
Seawater has a higher concentration of salts and minerals compared to freshwater. Seawater also has a higher density and freezes at lower temperatures than freshwater. Additionally, seawater has a higher pH and different composition of dissolved gases compared to freshwater.
Is bluefish a freshwater animal or a seawater animal?
its a seawater fish
Is hydrilla plant a floating plant?
Yes it is.
Seawater is typically denser than freshwater due to seawater's?
Salt
What is the consumer of hydrilla?
The consumer of hydrilla includes various herbivorous animals such as grass carp, waterfowl, and certain insects. These organisms feed on hydrilla as a food source in aquatic ecosystems.
Is a goldfish a seawater freshwater or tropical fish?

What is the density of wood in ocean and freshwater?
