As an aquarium plant - doubtful

Latest comment: 1 year ago1 comment1 person in discussion

Many results can be found about this species online about growing this plant in the aquarium hobby. However, I believe such information should currently not be added to this article, as I believe the plants sold as Trithuria lanterna are unlikely to be authentic. Given that the type specimen was originally also misidentified as a Centrolepis,^[1] and that the genus Trithuria in general sometimes can resemble Centrolepis,^[2] I believe it is implausible, or at least questionable and more likely to be a case of mistaken identity. The plants sold as Trithuria lanterna are also often attributed to the genera Eriocaulon and Centrolepis (specifically it is often indentified as the species Centrolepis drummondiana), so in absence of a reliable, believable source stating that Trithuria lanterna is grown in aquaria, I don't think such information should be added to the article.
