A fountain just aeriates the top layer of water. A diffuser brings water up from the bottom, so the stagnant water at the bottom gets aeriated too. This allows more bacteria to live on bottom and eat the sediment that settles out, giving your pond longer before you must clean it out. So the answer is diffuser.
