SunGrow 10 Pack Large Hermit Crab Catappa Indian Almond Leaves – Dried Leaves for Humidity, Natural Treat & Cellulose Source

SunGrow Catappa Leaves: Natural Enrichment for Hermit Crabs

SunGrow’s 10-pack of large Indian almond leaves offers a simple, natural way to enrich a hermit crab habitat. Each leaf is hand-picked, dried, and unprocessed, averaging about 7 inches in length. They bring an earthy texture and color to your terrarium, echoing the foraging environment hermit crabs would encounter in nature. Used as part of a feeding routine, these leaves provide variety and enrichment, helping to keep daily routines engaging without relying on synthetic options.

Humidity and microclimate are essential in many hermit crab setups. The Catappa leaves release moisture gradually as they sit in substrate or water bowls, contributing to a stable enclosure without artificial additives. This makes them a versatile addition for tanks ranging from nano tanks to small display jars. Please note that leaves may vary in shape and size due to their natural origin; each is about 7 inches long, reflecting real leaves rather than a uniform factory cut.

Benefits you can observe in a shared crab habitat

• Natural enrichment for exploration and foraging as part of a varied habitat routine.
• Raw cellulose content adds a plant-based component to a diversified enrichment strategy.
• May help maintain a balanced enclosure environment and ambient conditions when used with other care practices.
• Raw, unprocessed leaves preserve natural texture and color, suitable for nano tanks, jars, or bowls as decorative elements.
• Hand-picked and dried leaves retain authenticity, with some variability in size typical of raw plant material.

Usage and placement tips

• Place leaves where crabs can discover them during nightly foraging, or use as decorative additions to tanks and bowls.
• Because they are dried and raw, leaves can be added to habitats with or without soaking; monitor moisture and rotate as they break down over time.

In sum, SunGrow Catappa Leaves offer a flexible, natural enrichment option that mirrors elements of a hermit crab’s native environment. They are a straightforward way to diversify textures, invite exploration, and enrich the enclosure ambiance, without relying on artificial additives. Whether you’re refreshing a nano tank or adding a unique touch to a small display jar, these leaves provide an earthy, authentic presence that many keepers appreciate.
