I swear there’s a betta in this tank somewhere lol.
This was after under 24 hours of one in a 10 gallon.
I’ve been introducing this to my 10 gallon tank that houses a betta and a few varieties of snails. I’ve put some in a small bag that sits in the filter and also on the tank floor. My snails seem to like gliding over it and my betta definitely enjoys exploring the little nooks and crannies that the leaves create. Next step is acquiring a few little shrimpies to help out with the algae and biofilm. Love this stuff!
Introduced tannins immediately. And made my tank beautiful. I definitely recommend.
Although I'm not using them for their suggested use, I think they'll make a beautiful presentation for my chocolate lecture!
This leaf litter is a fantastic size for nano tanks. They arrived quickly. I'm excited to build my new blackwater tank with these!
Leaves were well packed. The seller really took the time to preserve the delicate leaves during shipping. I'm excited to give these to my shrimp!
First of all I was so impressed with the care in packaging of these products! They are beautiful and sustainable and are great to store the botanicals in. There were clear and easy directions and the botanicals were fresh and smelled wonderful when I boiled them. My lucky Lunara ( Betta) my Scarlet Badis Ravi, my Bloody Mary shrimp tank and my Endler/ Scarlett Badis tank all have leaf litter, alder cones and all the wonderful things that come in this pack. If you’ve never used botanicals I highly recommend it!
Wonderful as always!! botanicals never fail to make a just okay tank look fantastic :) Will be ordering again as always
Everything with my purchase was easy and my leaves arrived quickly. I followed the instructions and made a tea from the leaves after boiling them. It did turn the water in my 5-gal tank brackish or tea colored. I'm not sure if my betta liked it or not. He didn't say. I was hoping it would heal a spot on his fin but that spot has been there so long and hasn't changed so I now think it's just a discoloration. I'm hoping my fish was happy. My friends think he is "pampered." If nothing else it probably sanitized my tank.
Best product ever!!
I used to use just almond leaves, this is such a game changer. I ordered the maroon.
Snails love these!!! Thank you so much.
My snails are obsessed with anything natural and the jungle pods have become their new favorite place! My betta likes it, but the snails really do!
Plants arrived in a plastic pouch, with no cloth or anything to help keep them alive. Beyond that, they did arrive alive; albeit a bit butchered. I spoke with quality and they are rectifying the problem. Thank you for fixing this!
Hi Devan, I am sorry to hear about your experience. I strive to ensure my plants arrive healthy, and do apologize for any inconvenience caused. I have a robust DOA Policy, and if the plants arrive in poor condition, I will reship fresh ones. Please contact me so I can assist. Thank you for your feedback. -Ben
I just got my first order of Betta Tea bags. Purchasing both the brown and maroon bags will let me experiment with using both color tea bags at once and see what beautiful color I will obtain.
Having a 10 gallon tank there is about 9 gallons of actual water. Only needed 24 hours for one maroon colored bag to make the tank turn a very dark maroon. The instructions said to keep in 48 hours. That wasn’t necessary. The bag was dropped into the water as a dry bag. It was placed in the water baffle that was in front of the water pump.
Used to make the botanicals using the long process with a dry Indian almond leaf and boiling water. Just dropping the teabag in the water gives me ALL the natural botanicals.
I have a beautiful Hellboy Placket 1/2 moon Betta and 3 cory catfish. They are loving the botanicals. All very active and hungry.. The male betta is busy making lots of bubble nests. Proof he is happy.
Thank you Ben for making these teabags available. Also for the helpful emails.
