I've been importing Indian Almond leaves from one of the best known and most reliable organic providers in Asia. While I have offered the cosmetically perfect, large Grade A leaves, the leaves pictured below are from the very same trees and supplier, but are cosmetically imperfect, meaning they have tears or holes in the leaves.

Other than that, they are identical in every respect to the perfect Grade A's with the only difference being that these cost quite a bit less!!! These are in fact the leaves that I use personally in my fish room, and I can attest to the fact that my fish and inverts are completely unable to differentiate a leaf with an imperfection from a perfectly shaped leaf!

With my leaves you have the advantage of getting Asia's best quality leaves in a few days instead of a few weeks. You are getting a nice portion of twenty five leaves such as those shown above for one of the best prices for US shipped leaves. Used by most professional breeders of Asian blackwater fish, these leaves have been naturally sun and shade dried. They have never been exposed to herbicides and have also never been washed or treated with anything other than pure clear water. These leaves are all organic and they have not been treated with a chemical wash before shipping. Half the time the poison is in the cure!

If you are looking you are probably already aware of the properties of these leaves, but I'll enumerate for those who may need more info.

They are a natural aid to spawning for Bettas and apparently all blackwater fish. Read that to be organic Viagra for these species.

They release a natural brown dye that contains both humic and tannic acids having strong antibacterial and antifungal properties that will help keep the eggs from falling prey to fungus.

Once your fish have spawned, these natural substances help heal spawning wounds and protect the fry from opportunistic infections.

I use two small or a medium or large leaf in a ten gallon spawning tank which has a noticeable effect on both water quality and spawning activity. As the leaf ages and breaks down it aids in the growth of protozoans for the fry to feed on. After a couple spawnings your spawning tank will be a micro eco-system of your fishes natural environment. Complete with fry food at hand. They are also extremely beneficial for invertebrates such as Asian shrimp - and most shrimp in the hobby are - who also come from this environment. I have also had great results reported by killi breeders who use them as an anti-fungal when water incubating eggs.

I prefer PayPal, but USPS money orders purchased at the post office are also accepted. I'll send you a Paypal invoice for payment at the end of the auction. USPS First Class Mail shipping is free for this auction. These items are being offered for sale only in the US/Puerto Rico.

Thanks for viewing my auction and best of luck with your fish!
