Enhance your aquarium’s ecosystem with Oak Leaves, a natural and sustainable botanical that adds a touch of nature while providing essential benefits for aquatic life. These leaves slowly break down in water, releasing beneficial tannins that create soft, slightly acidic conditions ideal for shrimp, bettas, and other blackwater species.

Benefits of Oak Leaves in Your Aquarium

• Natural Water Conditioner – Releases tannins that help lower pH and mimic natural blackwater environments.
• Boosts Shrimp & Fish Health – Encourages biofilm growth, providing a natural food source for shrimp and fry.
• Antibacterial & Antifungal Properties – Supports fish health by reducing harmful pathogens.
• Creates a Natural Aesthetic – Adds a realistic, leaf-littered look to an aquascape.
• Encourages Natural Behavior – Perfect for breeding tanks and fish that prefer shaded, leaf-littered environments.

How to Use

Before adding to the aquarium, rinse the leaves thoroughly and boil them for a few minutes to sterilize and remove any contaminants. After boiling, they can be added directly to the tank or pre-soaked further to help them sink faster. Over time, the leaves will break down, gradually releasing beneficial compounds into the water.
