winterwhite Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 just wondering if anyone ever tried using black water / indian almond leaves tea bag which you can get off ebay.. any experience with them? can we get them in australia? if not, do we need to get someone (fish chick) to import them? or we could just get off ebay ourselves?

jo oakley Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I have used the black water extract and you should be able to buy it at most pet shops or aquariums, I find the boy seem to like it it does make the water a slight weak tea colour the other thing I have just started to ues is Atterson's Betta Spa( it has the almond leaf extarct) The nest the boys made after i used it where beautiful and I got mine from Bettarazzi What are the tea bags?
