1. Landscape Decoration: Creating a Natural Atmosphere
 Color Uniqueness
Red - leaf Stone usually presents red, brown - red or orange - red textures, resembling the colors and patterns of maple leaves. It can add distinct warm colors to the fish tank, forming a color contrast with green aquatic plants and transparent water, creating a natural landscape similar to an autumn stream or jungle.
 Natural Shape
Its surface is mostly uneven or has natural textures, which can simulate natural rocks in streams. When combined with landscaping elements such as aquatic plants and driftwood, it enhances the three - dimensionality and realism of the fish tank, making it suitable for landscaping styles like South - American - style and natural - style tanks.

 2. Water Quality Adjustment: Stabilizing the Water Environment Hardness and Minerals
Some Red - leaf Stones belong to sedimentary or metamorphic rocks and may release a small amount of minerals (such as calcium, magnesium, etc.), slightly increasing the hardness (GH value) of the water. It is suitable for fish that prefer weakly alkaline or neutral water, such as cichlids from the three African Great Lakes and koi.
 Adsorption Function
The rough surface can adsorb impurities and organic matter in the water, assisting in physical filtration. However, it should be noted that regular cleaning is required to avoid water quality deterioration caused by the accumulation of impurities.

3. Providing Habitats and Breeding Places
 Shelter Space
The gaps and holes in the stones can provide places for small fish, shrimps, and snails to avoid natural enemies. It is especially suitable for timid fish like neon tetras and killifish, reducing their stress response.
 Breeding Assistance
Some egg - laying fish (such as dwarf cichlids) will lay eggs on the stone surface. The rough stone surface can serve as a natural spawning substrate, increasing the breeding success rate.
