Review: Makes my axolotls (and me) happy...great for tank health! - I’ve got two axolotls and decided to give these Indian almond leaves a try after hearing people rave about their benefits...I’m pretty happy with them so far!! The pack came with plenty of leaves and they were all a good size (not dried out or broken up) I just toss a leaf or two in whenever I do a water change. It gives the tank water this natural tint and honestly, my axolotls seem way more chill since I started using them. Less stress, their gills and slime coats look super healthy and the water quality stays nice between changes. If you’re into natural setups or want to give your aquatic pets a boost I totally recommend these. Only thing (important thing) to note...expect your water to get that “tinted” look (not gross at all, just that classic tannin effect) and the leaves break down after a while, which is normal! Just swap them out as needed. All in all, great price and it actually does what it says!
Review: 100% Excellent Quality. As described. - Almond leaves arrived perfectly packaged. Excellent quality. I soft boiled a leaf for 10 minutes and let it cool down. The leaves are large and my fish love the hiding space underneath. Almond leaves are anti bacterial and naturally beneficial without having to use a lot of chemicals in the tank.

## Features

- Give your pet a conducive habitat --- Each SunGrow Axolotl Leaf is around 4-7" (11-18 cm)) and are a good addition in the axolotl enclosure. You will notice that the aquarium water starts changing color to tea-like. Our leaves release compounds that are beneficial for your pet.
- One product, several benefits --- Once introduced into the axolotl habitat, our leaves serve more than one purpose. It provides shelter, a supplement to their diet, energy during recovery, balance pH and clears water.
- Optimum quality leaves --- Products like bottled black-water extracts may contain other elements mixed in that may not be good for your pet. You could pick the leaves outside but you cannot be sure of the quality. The best assurance for your pet is to use SunGrow’s specially dried leaves. They are hand-picked to ensure that every single leaf is of optimum quality.
- Not just for axolotls --- Please note that your axolotl amphibians are antisocial and you house one pet in one tank. If you own multiple pets, you can make use of it with shrimps, snails, and fish. With time, the 10 leaves would soften and these pets will start to use the leaves as they see fit. Shrimps have been known to nibble on soft leaves, while fish sometimes hide under them. Our leaves serve as leaf litter for your other amphibians like newts, salamanders, and frogs.
- Easy to use --- Depending on your water tank size and the pH level needed, drop a few leaves into your water tank (you can use a pH tester or a drop checker). Over the next few days, the leaves will slowly settle down to the bottom. Since SunGrow Special Leaves are raw, you don't have to boil them down. Simply drop these leaves straight into your tank... it's that easy to use. These leaves can be used in a cage as well, to make a more naturalistic cage.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 100% Excellent Quality. As described.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EXCELLENT PRODUCT, BUT I DISAGREE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED
*by D***W on February 22, 2023*

Leaves were delivered intact in good condition and were about 7 to 7.5 inches long. The instructions recommend three leaves per 12 gallons (5 leaves if you boil them first) to be replaced weekly. I found that one leaf in a ten-gallon tank is more than enough to give the water the classic tea color, and I would be concerned that more than that could screw up the chemistry of the tank. I also believe that replacing the leaves weekly before they can form a nice layer of biofilm on them is counter-productive. I rinse the leaf without boiling and let it float on the surface of the tank. That will be enough to release the tannins and to color the water. It will sink in a day or so, and then nothing visible further happens for a couple of weeks other than providing a hiding place for small critters like cherry shrimp. Once the leaf starts to break down, snails, shrimp, baby shrimp, and some fish then start eagerly feasting on the biofilm and infusoria produced on it. After a leaf is well on its way to skeletonization, I add another to the tank so that there is always at least one coated with biofilm at any given time. Do the leaves act as an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal agent as often claimed? I don't know, but have no evidence that they don't. I do know that they provide a natural-looking hiding area for livestock in the tank and that a bunch of guys like to chomp on them once they have been in there awhile. The tank also looks more natural with the tinted water.
