The Honda pumps work well...we've actually used them to aerate our little BG pond when the FA takes over. We've also used them to pump the water out of a large cement tank. As long as you can get enough hose to run from the creek to the pond, you should be good to go!

"Only after sorrow's hand has bowed your head will life become truly real to you; then you will acquire the noble spirituality which intensifies the reality of life. I go to an all-powerful God. Beyond that I have no knowledge--no fear--only faith."
