Love my plecos!
I have a some of these leaves available, from a good trusted source. Taken from a safe, chemical free place. Already washed clean and dried. Great quality and nice color, as you can see from the pictures. Average size is between 7 inches - 9 inches.

It is said that the humic and tannins from the Indian almond leaves lowers the pH of the water, absorbs harmful chemicals and help create a soothing and calm environment for the fish. The leaves can be used to treat bacteria infection and some people also use it to aid breeding and a good hideout for frys.

Great for plecos, discus, angelfish, most amazonian fish, and also many people use for bettas.

Each lot is for 10 of these large leaves, at $4.50 plus $1.50 1st class shipping.
Let me know if you want more than 10. Use about 1 leave per 10 gal.

Yes, I have no problem with money order.

Someone else also asked if these leaves have been used. No, they were freshly collected, washed clean, then sun dried. There is still a tinge of fragrance to the leaves. :) I also have them in all my tanks, since I keep mainly plecos, angels and a few discus.

it lowers ph? how low?
Try googling it. There are lots of talk about the benefits of indian almond leaves in the aquaria. Also, see this thread http://www.aquariacentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=132234

Msjinkzd - I will try to have continued availability. It depends on whether this is worth pursuing. I only get my leaves from a trusted source, not random ebay or aquabid sellers. Currently I have 8 lots left, and I also just posted in plecofanatics to see what response I get from there.
