10 Mulberry Leaves
These leaves are hand-picked from a 100% organic source and measure around 7″ to 8″ in length.
Mulberry leaves are rich in minerals and vitamins and serve as a natural food source for freshwater ornamental shrimp. When placed in the aquarium, they break down slowly, providing a steady food supply for shrimp.
The decomposition of mulberry leaves encourages bio-film growth, which is essential for the nutrition of baby shrimp.
Additionally, the leaves offer hiding spots, helping shrimp feel secure and reducing stress in the tank.
Tip: We recommend boiling the leaves before adding them to your aquarium to ensure safety and prevent potential water contamination.
