I have a waterfall and water is pooling behind the spillway - and has to be refilled almost daily due to the water loss. Not sure why it’s flowing behind the spillway or how to stop it. Looking for advice. Called a professional - spent a lot of money - and still have trouble keeping water full. Help!

Might be even more helpful to see a video of the water in action from different angles.
Total guess because there is not much to go on, but the stones there have a lot of sharp edges and corners. The kink free piping you have is kind of notorious for being weak, so maybe the stones have punctured the piping and the leak is from there.
