Jurassic Reptile Products Jackfruit Leaves are all natural and completely free of harmful chemicals and artificial dyes. These high quality jackfruit leaves are ideal for a wide variety of aquarium applications, helping to reduce the pH levels in the tank, as well as releasing organic tannins that create authentic blackwater environments. Additionally, as these leaves dot and cover the bottom of the aquarium, it provides a quiet, natural ecosystem that helps to provide shelter and reduce stress in sensitive fish such as dwarf cichlids. In paludariums or terrestrial setups, these leaves can serve as food for small insects and isopods.
Preparation:
Rinse thoroughly before use. Boiling or soaking is advised. A "post-boil soak" in clean, freshwater combined with a bag of activated carbon will also be useful.
