Golden Gingko Leaves (50 Pack)

These beautiful leaves come from the ancient Ginkgo biloba, the only living species of Ginkgoales, with origins dating back over 290 million years. Their elegant fan-shaped form and rich golden colour add a refined, natural accent to blackwater aquariums, making them a visually striking choice for aquascapers seeking something truly unique.

While Ginkgo leaves release low levels of tannins, they are highly valued for their aesthetic appeal and biofilm development. Neocaridina and Caridina shrimp particularly enjoy grazing on their delicate surface, making them both decorative and functional in shrimp-focused and biotope aquariums.

Tannins Released: Low

All our leaves are organically sourced, free from harmful pesticides, and collected only after falling naturally from the tree.

Our leaves are cosmetically varied, as nature intended. Colour, shape, size, and appearance will naturally vary from leaf to leaf.
