Whenever I did it, it was "water!"

I might be wrong though, but it worked well

On the right hand side of the picture you gave us, you name the material = water!

Both work. I use water! myself though. Also I name it water! on every single place where you put the material's name (that would be: Here, Here, and the last Here).

Advancebo said that if you add a "^" it will let you climb the wall or something is that true? if so could one of you explain a little more?

^ is for climbable properties, and can be applied to any surface.
! is for render only and not have any collision, as in water

Water can also have:
% is to render both sides of faces, as in a plane of water
$ is for Fog properties, can be applied to water faces to have fog underwater
# is for those that want to get technical and have waves on the water

Spheres = bad

I always get errors when I export a sphere.

Use geospheres.

But you won't get a perfect sphere with triangles.

THough I'm not sure if geospheres work?

Use the non errorable tool, you know, tool is a tool most of the time.
