Hi,

Are there any "problems" adding bamboo (whole or split) into an aquarium?

Shouldn't be.

Try this link for an informative article on using bamboo in a fresh water
tank.

i think it rots after about 4 months, so only if you want to keep replacing
it

It requires waighting down , even if you remove the material between each
cell inside the stick.
Fill it with gravel until is sinks.
Having done all that it rots very quickly and goes smelly/slimy
