Which layer are you adding the water in?
You should be adding it in the base layer, unless you want the world to be different through different gamemodes.
If you're doing that, than I'm not sure how to help you

Not sure what you mean by layers, but you can only have one water entity in a map. So you could have multiple ponds and streams, but they have to be part of the same entity.

That would be technically impossible. You could make a workaround with objects that looked like water, but to actually have water at two different height levels cannot be done.
