That's surprising and disheartening to see. was there anything that was unique/special to the area that is raised? Tough to see if everything sunk or just the one area heaved. I would think everything sunk except one area. Maybe the fountain was constructed so it would not sink/settle. when pumping water from under the pool did it come out muddy or clear?
I can understand trying to pump out the water as fast as possible but removing the water to quickly from under the pool may have been a contributing factor. May also be that the fill under the pool is settling into the native soil under it.
I don't think there is anything you have done wrong, its more so with out the excavation was done, native soil compacted, back fill material and how it was compacted as well.
