over the top of the whole pond. on top of the plastic you already have there
water intake is thru the top of the bucket and filter media, discharge hose is
off to
the side of the bucket. it is just to pull water thru the media. ALL
UNDERWATER.
the hose does not need to break the surface.

=======================
Don't count on aeration to blow off ammonia. It's not in a form that can be
blown off or well aerated aquariums wouldn't have problems with fish dying
from ammonia.
