Product details
Description
The Teak XL leaf is a robust botanical that instantly adds a rugged jungle look to your aquarium. Its large size makes this leaf truly stand out and gives your tank a warm, natural look.
Besides its appearance, the leaf also performs a functional function: it slowly releases tannins, which ensures healthier water and a natural habitat for your fish and shrimp.
What does the Teak leaf do in your aquarium?
Teak leaves impart a light tea color to your water, lower the pH slightly, and thus mimic tropical conditions. Shrimp and bottom-dwelling fish love them: they shelter underneath, nibble on the leaves, and feel completely at home.
