Glass or plastic perhaps? I'm not sure, could be something else but I think it's that.

Aluminium foil looks really cool and realistic. But it could be difficult with lighting, it's so reflective. I use blue card sometimes and that works fine. Or if you actually want a moving stream [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIIQAn6xsII]this guy[/url] uses real lego quite good (about 1 min 45 secs in). 
I've also used Sqirlz water reflections too, but unfortunately it's not mac compatible (which is annoying).

But if you're just using a still pond or something than my advice would be to use foil. If not, I'd say blue card with white bits in it for waves or something.]]></content>

EDIT: After some very messy experimenting, I have come to these conclusions:

[*]Lego walls can't hold water[/*]
[*]Lego walls can't hold soap[/*]
[*]Soap Sticks to Lego[/*]
[*]Food coloring takes a heck of a long time to wash off[/*]

It's actually aluminum foil.

Golden, I think you should stick to aluminum foil, because you can control it easily. If you really need some inspiration, watch [i]The River[/i] (Which I'm already sure you have).]]></content>

This gave the ocean a nice glimmer effect.]]></content>
