How to Use?
This magical leaf can be placed in any filter, filtration system or water and replaced every two weeks. Note: The water after using the leaves is weakly acidic and pale yellow.
Put a leaf in 10 to 15 liters of water to keep the fish active and healthy. Extend the cycle of changing water every other day to every 6-7 days. Leaves can be kept in water for 1 week. It can increase its efficiency in less chlorine water.
The blade can float in the cylinder to increase the frequency of reproduction. Because men like to build his foam nest under the dry leaves.
We can also use this leaf to treat bacterial infections. Roll a leaf into a small water tank of about 1 liter and change the water every other day to the sick fish. Avoid direct sunlight for a week and keep the temperature at about 28 °C. -29 degrees.
What are the Catappa leaves?
For a long time in the aquarium hobby we tended to call these leaves “ Almond leaves” which is fine, but it’s more accurate to call them catappa leaves (as per their scientific name: terminalia catappa). Because they’re not really “almond” trees. They are related to almonds, but only distantly. You have to go up to the clade—“rosids”—to find their relationship. And that’s why we prefer to call them catappa leaves!
The catappa leaf is used directly in the fish tank for their effect on the water’s chemistry. In addition to that, some people find their appearance aesthetically appealing.
What are the Benefits of Catappa leaves?
Adding catappa leaves to your aquarium can benefit your fish in a number of ways.
First and foremost, when you add catappa leaves to your water you will notice that the water changes color. This is because the leaves are leaching tannins into your water. This can lower the pH of your water.
In addition to that, catappa leaves are known to have antibacterial and antifungal effects.
These benefits have been known in Asia for many years; for example, the use of the leaves is popular with betta breeders.
In more recent years, the scientific community has caught up by carrying out their own studies which has confirmed what hobbyists and breeders have long believed to be true: the leaves do protect from bacterial and fungal infections!
catappa leaves also provide a food source for fish! As the leaves break down, they are often enveloped by a biofilm that can provide food for fish. Apistogramma fry and small plecos find this especially palatable.
Do You need Catappa Leaves in Your Tank?
fish that come from blackwater rivers can definitely benefit from them though, because the leaves help make your tap water more like their natural water. By that I mean, the leaves lower the pH and create an inhospitable environment for fungus and bacteria. This is helpful for those fish because, coming from blackwater environments, they are often ill-equipped to deal with fungus and bacteria.
they will stain your water a tea-like color. This is because as the catappa leaves decay, they leach tannins.
If you’re keeping fish from blackwater conditions, they will most likely
enjoy
the darker tint to the water. Overly bright tanks can make some fish nervous, especially apistogramma species.
