Does anyone have experience with Leaf Litter in their tanks? I hear quite a few Apisto keepers use Oak leaf litter in the tanks. I live in the country and have an Oak tree in my back yard and I am considering using the leaves in my Tiger Barb tank when they start to turn colors this fall. My tank is decorated with silica (which I don’t really like the look of) and lots of driftwood from our lake as well as some silk plants. (not the fake looking ones)
I hear the best process is to boil them for a few minutes and then to keep them submerged in water for 2-3 days. Has anyone else considered this?
