Review: Vacuum sealed packaging kept leaves dry, Quantity of leaf sizes to choose from. Good quality. - These Almond leaves from Matchimaa were the perfect solution for my new Betta tank. As soon as I noticed that my newest fish baby was struggling I hopped on desertcart. Delivery was next day. After only 24 hours “Waffles” movements were significantly healthier looking and he seemed generally happier. The package came vacuum sealed so the leaves were fresh. The amount of leaves included and the variety of sizes was quite generous, allowing me to find just the right leaf for my 5 gallon tank. The water from the tannins was visually apparent not long into day one but the leaf did sink by day two. Overall, and based on my initial experience , I would highly recommend this product for any size tank. Fantastic quality, and quantity for the price. One final comment, the package states the leaves are good for up to one year given they are properly stored.
Review: Best I've bought thus far - These are excellent, HUGE, gorgeous leaves with a bounty of tannins released almost immediately. My snails love them!

Or can cut to small a few pieces about 4 × 4 cm. for convenience and beauty in your aquarium. And discard the leaf after 1 week and replace it with a new leaf. And you will be surprised at their better health.
- 🍀 Great Source of Food When an Indian Almond leaf starts to decompose, even after just one or two days, fish or shrimp will migrate to the leaf and spend most of their time picking at it. These leaves seem to be one of their favorite foods. Even as the leaf starts to degrade to nearly nothing, they will continue eating whatever is left down to the last morsel. Many keepers have reported higher breeding and shrimplet (baby shrimp) survival rates when they use these leaves.
- 🍀 A location for fish to spawn Many fish release their eggs (spawn) on or underneath fallen leaves. This helps hide eggs from predators or from washing away. And many fish will only spawn under certain water conditions. And the reduced pH and water hardness may be exactly what is needed to trigger your fish to spawn.
- 🍀 Creating Hiding Spots & Protection The dark coloration that comes with Indian almond leaf tannins can do a lot to make your fish feel safer. That slight staining helps to disperse light differently and creates a more comfortable environment for shyer fish. On top of that, the leaves themselves offer plenty of places to hide! Smaller fish and shrimp will appreciate this extra protection the most. They can quickly hide under the leaves whenever larger fish approach.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How long can the leaves remain in the tank?**
A: I leave mine in until they deteriorate. My shrimp eats it in the shrimp tank. In my Betta tank, my snails eat it. The more it breaks down the more beneficial it is to your water. The more tannins you get. You can remove it when it starts deteriorating if you want though.

**Q: are this okay for golden snails to eat?**
A: Hello, Yes dear!. Most snails or other small aquatic animals love to eat this organic leaf. It's safe. Because we have brought nature into your aquarium. Thank you so much.

**Q: Since most people do water changes, how often do these have to be added?**
A: It doesn't last forever, your fish will eat all the edible parts and leave the vascular tissue.  You can remove it then and replace it with a fresh one. This doesn't have to coincide with water changes.  Most aquarium species that like these almond leaves come from a brackish water environment, and the antibiotic effects of the tannins in the leaves make it so you don't have to change the water as often, unless you have goldfish.

**Q: Do you guys boil the leaves before you ship them out scared for unwanted life on the leaf?**
A: Thank you for the good questions and answers of dear customers.
Yes, These leaves have been boiled but you can boil them again if you like.

Because we specially select the leaves to go through the meticulous process. By Washing!, Boiling!, and Drying!. And packing the leaves into the sealed zip bags well clean and safe. Convenient to use and keep for a long time. In order to produce the highest grade products for your beloved fish. Thanks a lot.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Shrimp!
*by R***Y on October 12, 2025*

Excellent quality. Photo in review is a newer leaf in tank that’s now waterlogged, other photo is an “after” when the shrimp have picked the leaf clean. Even unopened, the bag smells like fresh leaves. One bag easily covers my 10- and 30-gallon tanks. It includes a mix of small and very large leaves—I break big ones in half or combine two small ones as needed. Leaves waterlog and sink after a couple days. I place three (left/back/right) so shrimp always find a snack alongside the glass biofilm and any extra food. I use them as steady shrimp forage and general health support—perfect for vacations or low-attention weeks. When I once overfed and vorticella flared in my 30-gallon, adding a couple leaves every other day (tea-staining the water with tannins) helped knock it back in ~2–4 weeks.
