I have electric at my pond for several reasons. It powers my pond well, the aerator compressor, waterfall pump, and a pond light. I only had 30 or so feet to bury since I relocated a shed/greenhouse I had builth years before.
If your only looking for aeration I'd suggest a windmill, a few members here can help you with this, it's much easier to mover air then electric.
