You know really, the inlet/intake for these pumps is not self-evident to the neophyte. So don't feel bad for not knowing right off.
BTW, if you want to provide a filter to prevent the intake from getting clogged as fast, some people put this kind of a pump in a pump sock or pump protector. There are several brands and designs, but I think they probably help. Here are three sources:
