You're right.  Part of the problem was the pigment (I just used a Chrome 
from metals.inc, which looks great for things that are supposed to be 
chrome, but probably isn't exactly designed for dark water), but most of 
the problem was that I had my fog settings messed up.  I've fixed that, 
and once I add some more bells and whistles, maybe I'll repost.

The texture is an "agate" texture, so it's kind of a combination of the 
texture and the spheres.

I've been tweaking the sphere array parameters and the pigments, and I 
think there will be some situations where the effect will be useful.
