Indian Almond Leaves And Crs

[Nick16]

hi guys, got some S grade CRS shrimp and some Almond leaves (ketapang) but how long should i leave a leaf in the tank?
do the shrimps eat it?
will it break down?

i know it absorbs some toxins (obviously not much) but if it helps my CRS it must be ok.
i have also heard about using clean old oak leaves but seeing as i have almond leaves i might as well use them.
