Large Crescent Eucalyptus Leaves (50 Pack)
Malaysian Eucalyptus leaves are unique in shape and differ from the typical leaf used in blackwater aquariums, and are a favourite among our aquascaping team. Their shape adds a new element to leaf litter and is an ideal choice for Malaysian blackwater biotopes.Â
