After using and testing out the Ketapang or Almond Tree Leaves, I swear by them. I make blackwater with the leaves, just like a big batch of tea, it makes the water amber colored but has an amazing effect on calming the fish. My fish are crazy over these things.

chemically what does it do to the water????

ive also been told...

I don't know if you're serious about the leaves. The leaves tend to drop the pH too fast, too low, and lead to all kinds of problems with your arow. I would suggest some cover to calm it down, such as fake plants.

any negatives to using these leaves???

I've been using k-leaves since day one. k-leaves release several weak organic acids like humic and tannins which lower the pH of the water; and also explains why it gives the weak-tea like coloration...

Just do a simple search in the internet and you can get tons of information on this.

Alternatively, you can buy this off the shelves of most LFS...
