Dulce Bark ( Pithecellobium Dulce ) is a rich source of tannins and other phenolic compounds beneficial for both fishes and shrimps.

 

The Dulce Bark tannins inhibit the growth of various fungi, yeast, bacteria and viruses. Dulce Bark is used worldwide by Betta owners that like to fight their fish.

 

Betta’s brought up in Dulce water are known to send their opponents into shock if they bite a Betta not brought up in the Dulce water. The opponent stops moving in a state of shock allowing their fish to attack with ease.
