Blackwater Dried Mulberry Leaves Large 10pk 20-25cm
Mulberry leaves are an exceptional, nutrient-rich treat for shrimp, crayfish, crabs, and snails. As a supplemental food source, they naturally enhance the well-being of your aquatic invertebrates. In particular, their high calcium and protein content provides essential support for shrimp and crayfish during the critical moulting process.
Packed with dietary fiber, vitamins, minerals, and vital trace elements, mulberry leaves offer a wholesome diet. Furthermore, as the leaves naturally break down over time, they foster a nutritious biofilm-a primary food source that shrimp and snails love to graze on.
Our mulberry leaves are 100% organic, completely untreated, and gently air-dried. Because they have a relatively soft cell structure compared to other botanicals, they soften quickly in the water, making them readily accessible for your pets to enjoy.
-
Boil & Soak: Place the leaves in boiling water for a few minutes, then allow them to steep and cool down. This helps them sink faster and removes excess tannins.
-
Add to the Tank: Drop the prepared leaves directly into your aquarium. Thanks to their soft texture, it won't take long before your shrimp and crayfish "pounce" on them.
-
Maintenance: Mulberry leaves can be safely left in the aquarium until they are completely consumed by your invertebrates.

Please Note: All of our aquatic botanicals are intended strictly for ornamental aquarium or terrarium use. They are NOT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION. DO NOT INGEST!
Always use common sense when introducing new elements to your tank. Take the time to boil or soak all botanicals prior to use to minimize any risk of water imbalance. Always introduce botanicals slowly into your ecosystem so you can safely monitor their effect on your fish, invertebrates, and plants.
Note: Due to the natural variations of organic leaves, each piece will look unique. The product images are a representation of what to expect.
