Mango Leaves

Mango Leaves are similar to the catappa leaf, releasing acids and tannins into the water which reduces fish stress and provides antibacterial and antifungal properties. Mango leaves will develop a thin biofilm that surrounds the leaf under normal, healthy tank conditions. When submerged in water, the leaves release tannins and tinge your water a beautiful golden brown. Benefits: Lower the pH and release humic acid and flavonoids Natural acids soothe fish and shrimp Helpful for breeding fish and shrimp Provides vitamins Antibacterial and antifungal Slow dissolving Preparation: Mango leaves take longer to sink than catappa leaves. Boiling for 2-5 minutes before adding to the tank will help them sink faster.
