TALISAY LEAF FACTS
(Also known as Indian Almond Leaf or Terminalia catappa)
1. Natural Water Conditioner
Talisay leaves release tannins that naturally lower the pH of the water, making it softer and more comfortable for tropical fish such as bettas, tetras, and gouramis.
2. Stress Reliever for Fish
The tannins help calm fish and reduce stress, especially during transport, water changes, or breeding periods.
3. Prevents Bacteria and Fungus
Talisay leaves contain antibacterial and antifungal properties that help protect fish from fin rot and fungus on eggs.
4. Boosts Fish Health
They strengthen the immune system of fish by creating a natural and balanced environment.
5. Perfect for Betta Fish
Bettas love resting under Talisay leaves. The water conditions mimic their natural habitat in calm, leaf-filled waters.
6. Great for Shrimps
As the leaf slowly breaks down, it produces biofilm, a natural food source that shrimps and small bottom dwellers love to graze on.
7. Helps in Breeding
The calm and slightly acidic water created by Talisay leaves encourages spawning and helps protect eggs from fungus.
8. Natural Shelter and Decoration
Dried leaves provide shade and hiding spots for fish, giving your aquarium a cozy and natural look.
9. Safe and Eco Friendly
Talisay leaves are completely natural with no chemicals or additives. They are safe for all types of freshwater tanks.
10. Easy to Use
Simply rinse the leaf, place it in your tank, and let it sink naturally. Replace it every few weeks when it starts to break down.
11. Affordable and Available
