I have a planted tank with a decent amount of dead leaves. I was windering whih fish or invert if any would help maintain the dead leaves?
 
Snails will eat the dead leaves as will shrimp but not very fast. Your best bet is to trim off the dead leaves and toss them
 
+1^

inverts and snails will eat them..........but if you want..............any shrimp species would do the trick.......but probably more active ones like Amanos........and tigers............I'd do tigers as they multiply/breed in FW unlike amanos...........so you can start selling them eventually. And you could add a diff. neocaridina speicies like RCS or yellow shrimp as they will also multiply/breed but won't cross breed with caridina species like tigers.......for snails......idk, any type would work
 
Snails:
MTS
Ramshorn an another idk the species

Ive got marmokrebs (marbled cray)

And ive got 4-5 RCS lets see how it goes. I may just start snipping away
