Product Description

Catappa Leaves Perfect for Shelter and Climbing

Crabs love to crawl around and climb onto anything in their tanks. The leaves are even light enough that crabs have been known to carry them from place to place. Pets enjoy hiding for various reasons, from taking a nap or molting to simply being shy. These leaves provide shelter during breeding.

Ready to Use Upon Arrival

As soon as your 10 SunGrow Hermit Crab Leaves arrive, they are ready to be placed into your crabitat!

The dried leaves arrive intact and will float at first. As they absorb water, they soften and slowly settle to the bottom of your water tank. Hermit crabs, snails, shrimp, and fish love to nibble on these soft and delicious treats. The recommended dosage is 2 leaves for every 10 gallons of water. You may want to make adjustments depending on the desired pH level in your specific aquarium.

Keeps Humidity High

When it comes to your pets, genuine products are always better. The leaves from SunGrow provide a cozy, moist atmosphere in which hermit crabs thrive. Maintaining the appropriate humidity in your crab habitat is crucial. The ideal climate is between 70% and 80% humidity. Hermit crab leaves increase and retain moisture, keeping humidity levels high.

Perfect for Shelter and Climbing

Not only do the special leaves add a beautifully rustic look to your habitat’s decor, but they also add some dimension to your crabitat.

How Our Catappa Leaves Benefit Hermit Crabs Humidity Regulation

The leaves release tannins, aiding humidity and offering hiding spots for hermit crabs in their enclosure.

Beneficial Additive

The leaves benefit hermit crab enclosures by enriching the substrate and supporting a healthy environment.

Aids during the molting stage

They aid hermit crab molting by offering a soft burrowing substrate and potential antimicrobial benefits.

Environment enrichment

Catappa leaves encourage microbial activity, releasing nutrients as they break down, and creating hiding and foraging opportunities.

Give your pet a conducive habitat — SunGrow Hermit Crab Leaves are around 2″ (5 cm)) and are a must-have for any crab breeder. You will start to notice your crabs nibbling on the leaves within the day these leaves are introduced. Just like they would in their original habitat.
Optimum Quality Leaves — Products like bottled black-water extracts may contain other elements mixed in that may not be good for your pet. You could pick the leaves outside but you cannot be sure of the quality. The best assurance for your crab is to use SunGrow’s specially dried leaves. They are hand-picked to ensure that every single leaf is of optimum quality.
Even Shrimps, Fishes & Snails Love Them — Depending on your water tank size and the pH level needed, drop a few leaves into your water tank (you can use a pH tester or a drop checker). Over the next few days, the leaves will slowly settle down to the bottom. As they start to do so, they will soften and your fishes, shrimp and even snails will start to use the leaves as they see fit. Shrimps have been known to nibble on soft leaf, while fishes sometimes hide under them.
Beneficial Leaves, Easy To Use — Since SunGrow Special Leaves are raw, you don’t have to boil them down. Simply drop these leaves straight into your crab’s tank… it’s that easy to use. These leaves can be used in a cage as well, to make a more naturalistic cage.
