If you have not already read about startup procedures for aeration systems being started up for the first time, you need to either do some searches and find previous discussions or ask about it here.
You don't want to take an existing pond with possible anoxic stratified water and just turn the pump on and let it go. You could cause yourself lots more problems than you already think you have.
Need to start up the aeration in short spurts before turning it on full time. Turn the first turn of water slowly. Do some searches or ask for more specifics if you do not already know how.
