The leaves are large and oval, about 20–30 cm (8–12 in) long, and cure to a warm amber-brown with a smooth upper surface and subtle veining. As they soften, they release tannins that tint the water golden to deep amber. They give fish shaded cover and form the base of a leaf-litter bed that small fish use for security and exploration.

Ours are imported from Indonesia, where mango has long been cultivated. The leaves are large and leathery, about 15–30 cm (6–12 in) long, and cure to an amber-brown with prominent veins and a firm, waxy surface. After an overnight soak they sink and lie flat, releasing moderate tannins steadily over 3–6 weeks for a warm amber tint. They are big enough to give bettas and dwarf cichlids real cover and firm enough to serve as a base layer under finer litter. As they soften, they build biofilm for shrimp to graze. They suit Southeast Asian builds and work as a general blackwater leaf elsewhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHabitat Snapshot\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong1\u003eTannin Character: \u003c\/strong1\u003eMedium · \u003cstrong1\u003eWater Tone: \u003c\/strong1\u003eWarm amber · \u003cstrong1\u003eHabitat Origin: \u003c\/strong1\u003eAssam to Myanmar, Thailand, S.
