Bring the natural benefits of Indian Almond Leaves to your aquarium with Sera Catappa Leaves. These natural leaves slowly release tannins and humic substances into the water, helping recreate the soft, tannin-rich conditions found in many tropical freshwater habitats.
As the leaves soften, they create a natural-looking environment while supporting fish wellbeing and adding extra structure to the aquarium. They are particularly popular in Betta, Tetra, Catfish, Apistogramma, Discus and other soft-water aquarium setups.

How to Use
Add the appropriate number of leaves directly to the aquarium and allow them to sink naturally. The leaves will gradually release tannins and soften over time.
As a general guide, use approximately one leaf per 50–100L, adjusting the amount depending on the leaf size and desired tannin level. Replace once the leaves have significantly broken down if required.
