There are submersible pond pumps, which go in the water and are generally quieter to operate. One thing to be aware of is this: some pond pumps use internal parts that use oil to keep them lubricated. This can be a disaster if the pump malfunctions. It can kill your fish and other pond inhabitants. Just be sure to ask your pond professional or pond pump dealer.  

External pond pumps are often used for professional setups, and with external filter devices. Some external pond pumps are the same type used in hot tubs and pools.
