Hello all.
For my upcoming Channa bleheri blackwater species tank I will be going for a submerged root look with lots of wood and multiple species of floating plants.
I want to add lots botanicals and wonder what types of botanicals take the longest to break down?
Champa leaves will be an expedition as I really like they’re look.
Most of the tannins will come from oak leaves in a sort of teabag fashion and of course the hardscape wood so I am not too concerned if botanicals added for the aesthetics do not give of much tannins.
Any tips on this subject are most welcome.
Cheers
