Product description

Every hobbyist knows how tough it is to keep their fishes comfortable, thriving, and calm especially with smaller fish species. But, with SunGrow Almond leaves, you can sustain it.

Almond Leaves

As soon as you drop the leaves inside the aquarium, you’ll notice your tank water browning after a few hours. This is fine as elements are being released into the water. Your tank water now has the right amount of elements and all the properties your fishes need. Take out the leaves when you see them disintegrating.

Benefits Food Source

They serve as a primary food source for aquatic organisms, providing essential nourishment and promoting overall well-being in aquatic environments.

Clears Water

Catappa leaves release compounds that possess cleansing properties, aiding in water clarification by inhibiting microbial growth.

Promoted Reproduction

Encourage Betta fish reproduction by releasing tannins that reduce stress, enhance water conditions, and create an ideal breeding environment.

Stabilizes pH levels

Help stabilize pH levels in Betta aquariums by releasing beneficial tannins, creating a balanced, healthier water environment for the fish.

Always rinse before use, even after boiling or soaking. By the way, a “post-boil soak” in fresh water is a recommended step too. Although we obtain our products from known sources, you can never be too careful, and the extra step is worthwhile, in our opinion.

Shrimps, copepods, sparkling gouramis, cory cats, and, oscars love it. Some of them use it as a feeding dish. A few hide behind it and take turns sleeping in the shade of the leaf. Some will make a hammock out of it and sleep on top of it. Watch your mystery snail wear it as a hat.

Suitable for most Pets Frogs

The leaves release beneficial compounds, aiding frogs by creating an environment that supports their well-being, growth, and reproduction.

Shrimps

Catappa leaves release tannins and compounds that mimic shrimp’s ideal habitat, promoting wellness, coloration, shedding, and breeding in shrimp tank.

Hermit Crabs

Catappa leaves aid hermit crabs by creating a softer substrate and mimicking their ideal habitat, supporting their well-being and shell wellness.

Reptiles

Suitable for reptiles too, providing beneficial tannins that enhance water quality, reduce stress, and mimic their primary habitat.

Give a no-stress home to your betta — When fish are given their native ambiance, they tend to grow stronger and heartier. By balancing the pH level, our leaves provide ideal water conditions. The Indian Almond leaves are considered to have beneficial properties and increase fish appetite making them happy.
Have a breeding pet? Add catappa — The tropical fishes create bubble nests using a floating leaf or a plant to anchor their bubbles. So if your tank has any one of the breeding tropical fish like tetra, guppy, platies, molly, cichlids, just add these leaves and see them anchoring their eggs over IAL. That is a sight to behold. In ancient times, the Ketapang leaves were used in folk medicine for indigestion.
Benefits other fish and snails too — The tea water has many advantages for fishes like tetra, discus, and goldfish. It is good for rasporas and many dwarf cichlids too. Apart from that, snail owners can benefit from the magical leaves. Giving your fish such an ambiance calms them down and aids in overall development. It helps in imparting color to them and makes their scales firmer.
Shrimps, fishes and snails love them — Depending on your tank size and the pH level needed, drop a few leaves into your tank (If you want to be exact about the pH level, you can use a pH tester or a drop checker). Over the next few days, the leaves will slowly submerge to the bottom.
Adds beauty to nano tanks, small bowls and jars — The Catappa leaves from SunGrow are unprocessed so you know what goes into your tank. They look pretty in a nano tank and add aesthetic beauty to your planted tank. You may even add these in individual betta jars or bowls.
