you can use a PL glob or stripe for adhering to the fiberglass. once your done you will get some high quality sealant and run a bead underneath the paver to seal it off. some use silicone, some use tile caulking, but regardless you need to tape it off and do it nice so it doesnt look sloppy. I would run a space, you will have spacing between pavers so butted tight wont look right and you will have no wiggle room when you are doing your bends or curves around pool. use a polymeric sand when done for pavers you want to keep water away from the shell and coping. make sure you have a drainage plan in place for you water management. pool coping and pavers are very tricky, if this is your first crack at it I wish you luck. my main advice is to run string lines and check your layouts as you go. its super hard to get the pavers square and have them meet up when you get to the other side of the pool and have them meet up. also depends on the style paver you will use if you can cheat it in the field. I have seen where measurements are taken and people start on the main big area against the coping and work out, then do the opposite smaller area using measurements to have that layout right and meet in the middle. this is for experienced ppl only and smaller simple layouts, and a square/oval pool. just keep control lines and follow them while setting, otherwise you will get crooked and out of pattern easily. pavers are all in the prep laying them is the easy part. one thing I will add is I wouldnt have poured the concrete collar that way. I would have stepped it down. The width of the coping stone minus a half inch should be flush with the shell, and the remainder should be down an inch or more. this lets you mortar only the coping to the bond beam and lets the paver body float on the base. if you have any settling from pool backfill or from the base it pops the pavers like teeter tots. and compact the life out of your dirt first, then the base in shallow lifts like 1-2" over and over damp it down as you go. if you dont own a plate compactor find one used on craigslist and sell it when your done. if you rent it you will have rented it enough times to have bought it by the end. I prefer to make all my cuts on a wet saw and only use the demo saw or angle grinder on curved cuts
