Not the ketapang leaves that are killing the shrimp. It's the drastic swing of the PH.

Always collect or get the ketapang leaves from reliable source, so that you know they don;t contain any funny stuff inside (like pesticides or other chemical).
Just wash them nicely before introducing into the tank, it should be fine. Normally adding ketapang leaves won;t kill the shrimps, but you must also at the correct amount of leaves to the tank lar, like 1 or 2 leaves to a 2footer. Think if added too much, the pH will swing. |
