Catappa leaves These organic, hand-picked leaves
are the perfect addition to your aquarium. They may not be on the top of your
shopping list now, but they are about to be. Catappa Leaves are actually one of
the most hardworking vegetation in your tank, providing a whole slew of
benefits for fishes, shrimps, frogs and even snails. Catappa Leaves are rich in
tannin and humic acids that are the right pH level for soft water and
blackwater fishes. It creates the right environment for sick fishes to heal and
for healthy fishes to thrive and breed. When soft, the leaves also provide a
diet supplement and snails, shrimp and fishes have been known to occasionally
take a nibble on these leaves to keep themselves healthy. The leaves also form
makeshift shelters for fishes to sleep under and are great nests for their eggs
to latch onto. Always rinse before use, even after boiling or soaking. By the
way, a “post-boil soak” in fresh water with a bag of activated carbon
is a recommended step too. Although we obtain our products from sources known
to be free of pollution, impurities, you can never be too careful, and the
extra step is worthwhile, in our opinion.
