Guava leaves (Psidium guajava) are a healthy supplementary food for all invertebrates, such as shrimp, crabs and crabs and serve as a natural water conditioner.
The guava leaves have a slightly antibacterial effect and can thus have a positive effect on the aquarium water and affect the pH value only imperceptibly.
The valuable antioxidants, flavonoids, vitamins, minerals and humic acids make guava leaves an all-rounder in natural aquaristics.
Guava leaves are supportive and preventive in:
- bacterial infections
- fungal infections
- Should be effective against Vibrio bacteria, which are thought to be responsible for some shrimp diseases
- spawning fungus
- gill worms
- Parasite infestation
- Bite wounds
For faster sinking, the leaves can be briefly scalded with hot water before placing them in the aquarium.
