Hello everyone. Hope you and your fish are doing well. I'm thinking of getting a new piece of driftwood for my Angelfish tank. Which is better. Mopani or Malaysian?

I like the shape of mopani, but both do the same thing.
If you don’t want a lot of tannins, manzanita is the way to go. You can get large, thick pieces from some sellers.

I've only used mopani, and love the pieces I have, but yeah the water is like tea if you don't use purigen. I put some in when I got it over 3 years ago, changed it after 6 months, then went probably a year before changing it, and still have that 3rd batch in there a year and a half later, might not need it anymore.
Thanks for the responses. I appreciate it. I LOVE Manzanita but hate that white slimy stuff. Everyone said it will go away. Mine NEVER did. I'm just looking to put a small piece in the tank. I want the Angelfish to be the centerpiece. I was just wondering if one was better than the other.
my flagtail went to town on the manzanita center piece I have and in a week all the slimy white stuff was removed, also never saw it again.
+1 for flagtail extermination services
same would probably work for smaller shrimps
