Sea grape leaves

Sea grape leaves (Coccoloba uvifera) are not only a healthy supplementary food for shrimps, crabs and crayfish, they also serve as a natural water conditioner in the aquarium.

The sea grape leaves contain valuable humic acids and tannins and can therefore have a positive effect on the water in your aquarium.

The leaves only have a very minimal effect on the pH value in the aquarium.

Of course, sea grape leaves can also be used in terrariums. There, the leaves can be used as a natural substrate.

To make the leaves sink faster in the aquarium, you can pour hot water over them briefly before placing them in the aquarium.

As sea grape leaves are a natural product, the size and shape of the leaves can vary.
