If you later decide to enlarge the waterfall, you could add more soil or aggregating large blocks stone and other natural-looking elements. If you are working on sloping terrain, you can place the filter over the pond and thereby create a true cascade of tiny waterfalls. For better visual effect, you could reduce the amount of water so it will run though more slowly, but waterfall will be broader.
