Delonix regia seed pods - aquarium safe?

Hi Everyone,
20+ years ago while on a family holiday to the Caribbean, Jamaica, I believe, I picked up and brought home one side of a large curved seed pod, about 16-18 inches long. While looking for something else yesterday I found it in a box and thought it'd look good in an aquarium, rather than in a box in the loft!
I believe it to be the seed pod from Delonix regia, which from what I've read so far, is very widely introduced, and seems to have edible seeds and various uses in traditional medicines.
Has anyone heard of these being used in aquariums before? Should it be fairly safe to just put in and see what happens?!
