Catappa Bark
Tantora Catappa Bark differs from Catappa Leaves in that the bark sinks immediately to the bottom of the tank. It gradually releases nutrients into the water and also acts as a natural shelter for shrimp. After soaking in water for more than 5 days, the bark softens and becomes a natural food source for shrimp.
