Leaves of Annona muricata (soursop/graviola) contain phenolic compounds and annonaceous acetogenins with notable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory potential. In shrimp aquaculture, dried leaves release tannins and polyphenols that reduce stress, strengthen disease resistance, and create biofilm-rich surfaces for continuous grazing. Their slight water-tinting effect replicates natural environments preferred by ornamental shrimp, enhancing survival and vitality.
