Additionally, they are a popular supplement feed for shrimps and crayfish. Beyond that, the leaves are a natural hiding for shrimps and have a decorative effect.

Advantages:

Release tannins which have anti-Bacterial Properties that help to prevent diseases such as Vibrio and Luminous Bacteria
The shrimp either directly eat the leaves or graze on the bio-film that will accumulate on the leave.
Acidify the water. Lower pH level
