Yup! Termites should be thought about.

Our treated lumber is termite resistant and could technically stand in
water longer than I will live. However, we have cement footings.

More important, I think, is to protect against subterranean termites with
either concrete or stone footings.

Treated lumber is treated with arsenic. Very toxic to plants around it.
Can't imagine using it around fish, if the wood should "sweat".
