I recently came across a Japanese Imperial oak (Quercus dentata) from which I have a lot of leaves now. The leaves are up to 30-40 cm long, thick and hairy.
I have started using them in my tanks mainly because they make excellent sight barriers and hiding places.
What I should have started asking I am doing just now: are these leaves safe as the more common oak leaves (Q. robur, Q. rubra, Q. petraea, Q. palustris, Q. ilex etc), as far as anyone of you know?
Like I said they have the excellent size for decoration and territory buiding. Besides, being thick and leathery, they are longlasting.
Thanks Jacobus
