I use cedars exclusively. Never oaks due to tanins. I killed off all of my first stockings of minnows and bluegills due to tanins in oaks.
Test the trees you want to use. Slice off some of it and put it in a bucket or barrel of the pond water. Wait about a week and see if the water changes color. Then toss in some minnows and see if the water is still good.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
