I've owned my place for a few years and have a 1 acre pond that leaks about .5 inch per day at full pool. I have bentonite that I'll be working into the dam in a few spots along with a full pallet of soilfloc to slow down my leak. If I fail, I want to use my creek to fill my pond.

Has anybody done this?

My thinking is to use a solar power pump to carry the water but how far can the pump push it? My creek is about 400 ft off the back side of my dam. So have to push that distance plus up hill on my dam. Sound possible? How much water would I need to pump to keep it full? This creek is spring fed and never goes dry btw.
