Two possible downsides.

Introducing unwanted fish that are a lot of trouble to get rid of. And then you might pick up some unwanted vegetation.

One inch of water over one acre is 27,000 gallons. Do the math. I once had a good 3 inch pump. It would fill a 50 gallon barrel in 11 seconds.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
