Description
The Cocoa leaves come from Sri Lanka. The leaves of the cocoa tree are versatile in aquaristics. They are very similar to sea almond tree leaves. Just like these, cocoa leaves have a high amount of humic substances. This property promotes the health of the aquarium inhabitatns.
For shrimps, the very slowly decomposing cocoa leaves form a natural hiding place and a near-natural replica of their habitat. At the same time, they serve as a food source. Microorganisms settle on their surface and form the optimal addition to any grazing water animal's diet. Their bright colouring also creates a beautiful effect in the aquarium.
Features
- High amount of humic substances
- The substances are only slowly released into the water
- Serve as hiding places for shrimps
- Provide micro-organism habitat as food for shrimp
- Authentic habitat design
Contents
100 % cocoa tree (Theobroma cacao), dried and in a resealable zip bag for ideal storage.

My Neocaridina love these leaves.

Sie lieben es
Meine Neoc. lieben diese Blätter.
The leaves are quite big (approx. 30-35 cm) and last quite a long time. I'd estimate around 2 months. (read more)

Langlebig und groß
Die Blätter sind recht groß (ca 30-35 cm) und halten ziemlich lange. Ich schätze so um 2 Monate. Daher finde ich sie besonders gut geeignet, wenn die Blätter als Dekoration bzw. als Versteck genutzt werden sollen.
Anders als beispielsweise Catappa färben die Blätter kaum das Wasser, was man je nach Bedarf als gut oder schlecht ansehen kann.
The leaves themselves are really big. I always soak leaves beforehand, and I observed that they release hardly any humic substances (at least not visibly). (read more)

Absolut riesig
Die Blätter selbst sind wirklich groß.
Ich weiche Blätter immer vorher ein, dabei habe ich beobachtet das sie kaum Huminstoffe abgeben (zumindest nicht sichtbar).
Die Garnelen,ob Neocaridina oder Amano,
lieben die Blätter allerdings. Keine 10 Sekunden drin und sie haben sich auf dem Blatt versammelt.
Von meiner Seite aus also zu empfehlen, habe ein großes Becken und habe die Blätter zur Versorgung von Garnelen und Schnecken gekauft.
