Green tea rather then black tea?

If you haven’t seen my other thread, my axolotl got a rip in her tail. U wanted to use black tea for tannins, but I don’t have any. I do have a box of pure green tea. Can I still use this?

Green tea has far less tannins than black tea (hence it's lighter in colour and less bitter).
Since tannins are what supposedly is beneficial about tea baths, it seems green tea would be far less effective.

Basically, you'd be putting leaves in your aquarium. It wouldn't hurt much (until they start to decompose, of course) and might even give the water a nice natural look. I doubt it would do much good, either.
