Score.

Beech is recommended!

"You need to collect clean, preferably dry leaves that are still intact with no rot or damage, these leaves need to have dropped naturally to the ground. Please, never collect green leaves directly from the tree or you could run into trouble with the leaves still containing chloroplasts and other living tissues that you don’t want in your aquarium. You are looking for brown, dead leaves that have naturally fallen to the ground."

and those are the hints I recieved. This info came from a cichlid breeder.
