I have used my well water on my 2 acre pond in Central Texas for years. Mine pumps into the pond through a large PVC pipe that is above the waterline. I had 3.5 horse pump put in when they dug my well and it puts out 35 gallons a minute.

My pond is fed by a wet weather creek so I turn the pump off when it is running. The only downside is it does affect my electric cost - nothing huge but does bump up the cost. During summer evaporation it keeps my pond level if running 24/7.
