I'm not sure what sort of false bottom you have there, but one thing to consider for a lagoon or pool under the falls, is placing a plastic food container under the falls,--puncture this with a lot of holes so the water will circulate into the false bottom to be pumped back over the falls. I use a heated ice pick to make a lot of perforations. Then you can shape it from the top by overlapping the edges with flat rock, substrate and mosses. Maybe when you can post some pictures, we'll have a better idea of just what you are working with.
