How to use Indian Almond Leaves

A note, though. It depends on how big your tank is when it comes to putting in the dry leaves. I personally use about 5cm x 5cm of the whole dry leaf for an 0.5 gallon tank. In addition, only leave it there for about 3 days and you will have to remove the leave from the tank. Otherwise, it will start to release bad properties that will do harm to your betta.

Oh, don't worry about your betta. They will be able to tell if it is a food or not.

I bought IAL at a betta shop Here: http://www.mnbettashop.com/ Very nice people! And they also told me to remove the leaves after 3 to 4 days or they will rot in the tank. Maybe it depends on the size of the tanks? I remove mine about a week or so. Once I see the leaves fold and change to a darker color I change them out. I don't wanna take any chances.
