I use cedar because I haves lot of them. They work.

Don’t use oaks. They have tanins which is lethal to fish. I found that out the hard way. To test for yourself, put a fresh cut piece of green oak in a bucket. The water will blacken and kill fish.

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.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
