  how to prime a pump

thanks for the ideas - i filled the intake hose from the pump end and that got it going again - didn't realize the intake has a one way flow valve
I am trying to see what soil conditions are at bottom of pond so i might be able to patch area where it leachs into lower pond and make it deeper to possibly irrigate fields - any thoughts if it could hold fish?
