So I used to get catappa or indian almond leaves from a tree here in my neighborhood and add them to my tank. But about a year ago they killed the tree since the house there was being renovated, but they left the whole trunk lying on their front yard. So I was thinking of using some of the branches, roots, or small stumps of the tree as driftwood for my freshwater tank. I'm not really sure if it's safe to use like its leaves though, I have no idea if it can leech out stuff other than tannins, or maybe rot quickly? I don't have a picture but the wood looks grey-ish, dried, and have no barks left if that helps?
