Leaf litter in Aquarium
Hi bros, is there any other leaves which I can use to create a leaf litter effect in an aquarium instead of using ketapang leaves?
Didn't want to use ktp leaves as the water will turn brownish |

I think most leaves will have the same tannins effect. If you want leaf litter why not just soak the ketapang leaves for a few days to remove the tannins.

Yeah, will work even better if you boil the leaves or use hot water.

Activated carbon will restore water clarity if the blackwater is unsightly to you.
