Riddle i need help on.

Allright, here is the riddle.

"What looks like the reflection of a rainbow in water?"

I really have no clue, and would like some help or ideas. I only get one guess, and would like to be right.

 

I am going to guess oil.
Oil in water looks like a rainbow in a way.

 

It's oil.

thanks guys. Im gonna put that in as my answer. Wonder why i didn't think of it....and i guess im not too good at googling...i tried that... :maha:

 

This is probably too late, but I'll post it anyway.

I thought maybe it was the rainbow that you see when you spray water from a hose. That way it's like the reflection of a rainbow in water itself, rather than looking like a rainbow, *when it's in water*. I hope that makes sense. :\ Maybe I'm looking too deep into it...I tend to do that when it's a riddle, lol.

Whenever you get the correct answer from your class, let us know what it was.

 

not only oil, any kind of liquid which not dissolve in the water!
