They can gently tint water and enrich microhabitats without dramatically altering water chemistry.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulberry leaves contribute a protein-rich boost along with vitamins and minerals that may support overall vitality in shrimp and Bettas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDadap leaves offer essential vitamins, amino acids, trace elements, plant enzymes, and minerals that help round out a varied environment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlder and Casuarina cones produce tannins and help create a blackwater-like environment while supplying a natural biofilm-based food source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCholla Wood adds habitat structure and an inviting surface for attaching plants and mosses, providing ample hides for adults and fry alike.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCatappa Bark is a more concentrated tannin source than leaves and still functions as habitat and hiding space like the wood.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eAll items are sourced responsibly from natural habitats and packaged to be safe for aquatic pets. Keep leaves in a clean, dry place between uses, and consider cutting larger leaves to speed activation in smaller tanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn general, use approximately 2 leaves per 10–15 gallons or 1 leaf per 5 gallons. Betta breeders frequently use up to 2 leaves per 5 gallons. You can cut leaves for faster release and activation, and you can place the cholla wood directly in the substrate or attach plants and mosses to it for extra habitat complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith steady use, the kit may contribute to color, vitality, and breeding-friendly microenvironments in soft-water species. The combination is designed to be a sustainable, ecologically harvested resource for hobbyists who value natural aesthetics and low-maintenance habitat enrichment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: What is included in the Awesome Aquatic Shrimp Combo Kit?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: The kit includes 10 Catappa leaves, 10 Mulberry leaves, 10 Dadap leaves, 10 Alder cones, 10 Casuarina cones, 10 g Catappa Bark, and 1–6 inch Cholla Wood.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: How should I use the items in my shrimp tank?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Use about 2 leaves per 10–15 gallons (or 1 per 5 gallons); Betta breeders may use up to 2 leaves per 5 gallons; cut leaves for faster activation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Awesome Aquatic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40565628469377,"sku":"B0CJ8974VP","price":57.68,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0598\/4757\/3633\/files\/awesome-aquatic-shrimp-combo-kit-catappa-leaves.jpg?v=1766004918","url":"https:\/\/petiva.ca\/products\/awesome-aquatic-shrimp-combo-kit-catappa-mulberry-dadap-leaves-with-cones-bark-cholla-wood","provider":"Petiva","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
