In aquaculture, The Indian almond leaves have been claimed as a promoting substance
for wound healing, especially for injured Siamese fighting fish after fighting matches. Chansue
et al. [12] reported increasing thickness of keratin layer in Siamese fighting fish scale. The leaves
have a potential to use as an alternative treatment for chemical substances and antibiotics.
Various concentrations of the extracts in water to prevent fish pathogen have been examined.
Chansue and Tangtrongpiros [13] found that water extracts of the dry leaves can rapidly promote
regeneration of fin tail of fancy carp. Chitmanat et al. [14] reported effectiveness of 0.8 mg/l
concentration of leaf extracts of Indian almond tree against Trichodina and other bacterial
infections in tilapia, and against fungal infection in tilapia egg. In addition, the leaf extracts can
eliminate Zoothamnium spp. infection of black tiger postlarva shrimp within 24 hours after
exposure [15], and can significantly decrease the number of Gyrodactylus and Dactylogyrus
infection of gold fish [16].
