What are Jack Fruit leaves?
In aquarium use, Jack leaves refer to the dried leaves of the Artocarpus heterophyllus tree – a tree that is native to Southeast Asia and has been used in traditional medicine there for centuries.Once dried, they are ready to be used in aquariums.
Our leaves is form natural fallen. leaves must be collected from falling leaves . leaf is Premium Grade A+++. Each leaves has been put through hygienic cleaning process after they fall. selected only smooth surface leaves and was flat for easy to store.
Good leaves should be Red, Yellow and brown color only.leaves must be without fungus spot because fungus spot can tell us that leaves fall for long time before collect.

Improve the quality of your aquarium water
When added to your aquarium, Jack leaf will gradually break down. And as it does, it releases tannic acid, tannins and other substances into your aquarium.
As the tannic acid is released, it lowers the pH of your water. If you want a natural solution to reduce the pH levels in your aquarium, jack leaf helps to achieve just that.
A study has also found that jack leaves can significantly decrease water hardness (GH), which can benefit those who use hard water in their aquariums.[2]
Okay, but what good is that for your aquarium?
Well, the water out of your faucet probably doesn’t match the ideal conditions of the fish you keep.
jack leaves change the water so that it more closely resembles the habitat of your fish, particularly those from Southeast Asia and South America.
Fish that benefit from jack leaves include:
Angelfish
Barbs
Betta
Cory catfish
Discus
Gouramis
Killifish
Platies
Rasboras
Tetra
Natural medication for skin problems
Many aquarists swear by jack leaf as a natural remedy for diseases or injury involving their fish’s skin or rather their scales.
It is believed the tannins released by jack leaves kill bacteria, fungus and viruses, allowing an injured fish to heal much quicker.
It is even suggested that jack leaf might be a better solution than antibiotics and other medications when fighting bacteria and fungus in commercial fish farms.[3]
In Southeast Asia, many betta keepers add an jack leaf to their betta’s water because they believe that it toughens their fish’s skin and makes them better for fighting. They also use it to help a fish heal after a fight.[4]
While there have been no studies that prove jack leaf helps toughen betta skin, there is strong anecdotal evidence to suggest it does.
The argument for jack as a medication for fish, however, is a little more compelling…
You see, jack leaves contain flavonoids.
I won’t bore you with all the details, but a flavonoid is essentially what gives fruits and vegetables their color.
But it’s one flavonoid in particular that we are interested in – quercetin. And, jack leaves have lots of it.
Quercetin has been shown to offer anti-inflammatory benefits to humans.[5]
Other studies show that tannins have anti-fungal properties.[6]
It’s possible the tannins and flavonoids in jack leaves are responsible for fish healing faster.
A leafy location for your fish to spawn
Many fish release their eggs (spawn) on or underneath fallen leaves. This helps hide eggs from predators or from washing away.
Discus and tetras prefer to spawn on leaves at the bottom of a waterway. Betta and gouramis, on the other hand, build bubble nests on leaves that float on the surface.
leaves also have another benefit to spawning, and it’s one I covered earlier.
Many fish will only spawn under certain water conditions. And the reduced pH and water hardness may be exactly what is needed to trigger your fish to spawn.
