## Overview

SunGrow 10 Natural Shrimp Leaves are organic, hand-picked catappa leaves that create a natural breeding environment for shrimp. Rich in beneficial tannins and humic acids, these leaves promote shrimp health and provide a nutritious food source through biofilm development. Perfect for shrimp breeders seeking a chemical-free, high-quality addition to their aquariums.

## Description

What are benefits of Shrimp leaves? Seemingly simple, Shrimp leaves are actually one of the most hardworking vegetation in your tank, providing a whole slew of benefits to your shrimp. They create the ideal environment for sick shrimp to heal and for healthy shrimp to thrive and breed. These nutritional food sources enhance shrimp’s natural color, help prevent illness, accelerate your shrimp’s natural healing rate, release tannins to balance the pH level of your water and provide shelter and entertainment. You will start to notice your adult and baby shrimp interacting with these leaves the day they are introduced. How do I use the Shrimp leaves? The SunGrow Giant Shrimp Catappa Leaves are incredibly easy to use. 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, and pesticides, you can never be too careful, and the extra step is worthwhile, in our opinion.  Depending on the size of your shrimp tank and the pH level needed, start by dropping a few leaves into your tank. You can always remove leaves or add more to adjust the amount of tannins in your water. If you have a variety of tanks, you can use full leaves in larger tanks and tear the leaves into smaller pieces for one gallon tanks. Why is my water turning brown? After a few days, you will notice your shrimp tank water turning a light brown color; this is tannins being released into the water. Tannins are what give blackwater rivers (shrimp’s natural habitat) their characteristic tea color appearance, lower pH levels and healing properties. The color shows you that your tank water now has the right amount of nutrients your shrimp need. Remove the leaves after a few weeks when they start to disintegrate.

## Features

- SIMULATES NATURAL BREEDING ENVIRONMENT FOR SHRIMP --- Several breeds of shrimp have natural habitats in mountain streams surrounded by overhanging trees and brush, making the area abundant in fallen leaves and plant debris. Adding Shrimp leaves to the shrimp tank simulates their natural environment and gives shrimp the privacy to encourage a thriving breeding habitat. A must have for all shrimp breeders, these provide safe shelter for adult shrimp and a convenient hiding spot for baby shrimp.     RICH IN HIGHLY BENEFICIAL TANNIC AND HUMIC ACIDS --- Aquarium water rich in tannins and humic acids is essential in keeping your shrimp healthy and happy. Giant Shrimp Leaves from SunGrow are full of tannins that are released into the water, lowering the pH level and creating a unique natural black-water habitat. These tannins have beneficial properties such as being anti-fungal and antibacterial and calming your shrimp (particularly important if you are introducing more or moving them).     DELICIOUS, NUTRITIOUS TREAT FOR YOUR SHRIMP --- A few days after you place the shrip leaves in your shrimp tank, they will slowly sink to the bottom. As they sink, they soften and develop a thin layer of biofilm (microorganisms) which shrimp love to graze on. The nutrition biofilm provides a balanced diet, a complex mix of healthy bacteria and protein and aids in building your shrimp’s immune systems. Shrimp love this delicious treat and will eat the leaves right down to the skeleton.     ORGANIC, ALL NATURAL AND 100% CHEMICAL FREE --- For the most beneficial addition to your shrimp tank, organic Shrimp Leaves are the most pure and healthy choice. While, products like bottled black-water extracts may contain other potentially chemicals mixed in, the all-natural Giant catappa leaves are 100% chemical free. They vary in size with lengths of 7-9” (18-20 cm). If you have a smaller tank or varying size tanks, you can tear up the larger leaves into smaller pieces.     HAND PICKED FOR OPTIMUM QUALITY --- These remarkable Shrimp Leaves from SunGrow are also known as Indian almond leaves. They are hand picked just before they fall, to ensure every single leaf is of the highest quality. Even if you could pick the leaves outside, you cannot be sure of the quality and level of contamination they might have. The best assurance for the health of your shrimp is to use these premium grade catappa leaves guaranteed free of bugs, fungus and chemicals.    ›See more product details

They seem v good. I'd bought them to help reduce my pH but then found out that because my tap water is very hard they won't make any difference,  still using them though, they make good cover for the shyer fish.
