Hi George and welcome to Pond Boss.
Where are you in Northern California?
Hyacinth is considered an invasive species in California and grows very prolifically in lower elevations. Personally I would be cautious about introducing it especially if you have a spill way that could allow it to travel down stream. There has been serious problems with Hyacinth in the delta and in the Consumes river near Folsom. According to what I have read, during the warm months of growth it can double in size (area covered) every 18 days. It if were me I'd probably get rid of it. With your colder temperatures you might not have a problem with it as it should die back in the winter. Still I'd be concerned about it going downstream.
Several forum members are in Northern California. Welcome to Pond Boss!
