Catappa Leaf 1 pc

If you have sensitive species (like crystal shrimp and certain South American fish) that prefer low pH and soft water, Indian almond leaves can slowly lower pH by releasing tannic acid, humic acids, fulvic acids, and other organic compounds with weak acidity. They take longer to work than pH buffer chemicals, but their gradual effect is sometimes considered “safer” because they are less likely to cause deadly pH swings. Because of their impact on water chemistry, the leaves are generally not used for high pH fish like African cichlids and many livebearers.
