Seachem Catappa Leaves

Seachem Catappa Leaves

Seachem Catappa Leaves are an excellent way to create a more natural, healthy environment for your aquarium inhabitants. Sourced from Indian Almond Trees (Terminalia catappa), these leaves are perfect for replicating the conditions of tropical habitats with acidic water and abundant leaf litter. When added to your aquarium, they release tannins and other organic compounds that help maintain a lower pH and gently tint the water, mimicking the natural environment of your fish and invertebrates.

As the Catappa leaves break down, they encourage the growth of beneficial micro-organisms on their surface, providing a natural food source for shrimp, snails, and newly-hatched fish. These leaves not only enhance water quality but also promote a balanced ecosystem that supports the well-being of your aquarium’s inhabitants.

Perfect for Bettas, shrimp, and other species that thrive in slightly acidic, leaf-littered environments, Seachem Catappa Leaves are a simple and effective way to improve water conditions and create a more enriching habitat.
