Indian Almond (Cattappa) Pods (Pack of 4)
Catappa leaves also known as "Indian Almond Leaves" come from the Terminalia catappa tree. They have chemical healing properties which may naturally help fight off mild bacterial, fungal or parasitic infections. Therefore, these leaves are great for many different types of livestock including bettas, shrimp, community fish and more.
In nature, Terminalia catappa leaves will fall into rivers and other bodies of water and will tint the water a rich brown 'tea' color as they break down. This is due to chemical compounds found within the leaves called tannins.
These are the seed pods of the Catappa Tree, they are a great natural addition to an aquarium realeasing similar benefits to the leaves and bark that the tree offers.
Additionally many of the seeds from the Indian Almond Tree can be placed in soil (Outside the aquarium) if growing a tree is desired.
Please note we have not tested these pods for tree growth only for use as a natural product for aquariums so can't guarantee the results.
