I would not put any drift wood in because the fish is to big for the tank as it is. nice looking fish.

id say no to the pond. dont worry about jumping. worry about the people/children who would try and touch your pond.
aba abas are known to bite of fingers BUT it is not because of aggression its a way of looking if its a food or not. aba abas are almost blind they find food by detecting electric signal/pulse from a potential prey.
for example: when you put your finger in an aba abas tank it generates electric pulse which attracts the aba aba they dont see it as your finger or a feeder all they see is a potential prey so they would take a bite(we all know that their bite is really nasty) and you know whats next. hope it helps.
