Tree stump in pond
 

We have a nice looking small tree stump that I removed from the ground
last year. I was thinking about putting in our pond for the fish to
hide under.

Anyone see any problems in introducing this to the environment?
Should I maybe jet wash it first?

Depends on the type of tree. Power washing ought to do it if it is a benign
wood. Gang? ~ jan

Like Jan said, depends on the wood. Pine is fine, Cyprus is better. Just remember
that it will float for a couple of years. it takes time for it to get water logged.

I found it buried in the yard so it is hard to determine. Most likely
oak as that is what is every where else in the yard.

Hmmm.... I'm not really sure, I think oak would be okay, but I think I'd do
some google searching to be sure. ~ jan
