  Guava Leaves - natural food for Freshwater Shrimps

Guava has been used in human medicine (both real and complementary) for a long time. The active ingredients from its leaves have shown significant action against many well-known diseases such as Salmonella, Staphylococcus, E. coli, Clostridium, Pseudomonas and more.

In a nutshell, this stuff is great at getting rid of undesirable bacteria. Furthermore, it seems to show no adverse effects at standard doses.

In the aquarium, Guava is marketed as both a natural food and antibacterial medication for shrimp. The food side is a no-brainer, as shrimp will eat just about anything, frankly. I suspect I could give them a chunk of glowing Uranium and they would have a fair old munch right up until they all died.

The antibacterial side does fascinate me, however. There are a few research papers floating about, showing how Guava leaf has been used alongside and in comparison to other conventional treatments in shrimp aquaculture, with good effect.

For best result use one leaf every 20 liters of water.
