SunGrow Catappa Indian Almond Leaves for Shrimp Features
-
Creates Conducive Ambiance for Shrimps --- Several breeds of shrimp have habitats in mountain streams surrounded by overhanging trees and brush, making the area abundant in fallen leaves and plant debris. Adding Shrimp leaves to their tank mimics their original habitat and gives them the privacy for reproducing. A must-have for all shrimp breeders, these provide a secure shelter for grown up shrimps and a convenient hiding spot for baby shrimps.
-
Delicious Treat for Your Shrimps --- A few days after you place the shrimp leaves in the tank, they will slowly settle down to the bottom. As they settle, they soften on which shrimp love to graze on. This food provides a balanced diet and aids in building your shrimp’s system. Shrimp love this delicious treat and will eat the leaves right down to the skeleton.
-
Raw Shrimp Leaves --- For the most beneficial addition to your shrimp tank, the SunGrow Shrimp Leaves are a good choice. While products available in the market may or may not be genuine, the medium catappa leaves are unprocessed. They vary in size with lengths of 4-7” (10-18 cm). If you have a smaller tank or varying size tanks, you can tear up the larger leaves into smaller pieces.
-
A Must-Have for Shrimp Keepers --- These Indian Almond leaves are essential in keeping your shrimp happy. These leaves have beneficial properties that help in calming your shrimp (particularly important if you are introducing more or moving them).
-
Handpicked for Optimum Quality --- If you pick the leaves outside, you cannot be sure of the quality they might have. The catappa leaves are guaranteed to be genuine. PREPARATION: Before placing the product in the aquarium, rinse before use, even after boiling or soaking. A "post-boil soak" in fresh water is a recommended step, too.
About SunGrow Catappa Indian Almond Leaves For Shrimp
What are the 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 color, accelerate your shrimp's healing rate, 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 is a recommended step too. 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 as per the requirement. If you have a variety of tanks, you can use full leaves in larger tanks and tear the leaves into smaller pieces for one to five-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 nothing but the creation of tropical environment required by shrimps. Their characteristic tea color appearance, lower pH levels and have healing properties. Remove the leaves after a few weeks when they start to disintegrate.
