Opaque water over gravel

Hi folks,
RE: build 5034.
I'm unsure whether this is a variant of the 'transparent fish' syndrome or not, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

On at least 3 occasions I have seen a fish swim through the area between the rock on the far left and the small rock in the middle, directly over the gravel, and behind the rocks. When it does so it appears that the water between the fish and the viewer becomes grey and somewhat opaque. It could be a vague image of the gravel being superimposed; I'm uncertain. Perhaps it is a case of a 'sprite' , or whatever it's called, not being properly ordered.

This happens briefly, and I haven't been able to get a screenshot, and I don't have time to sit and wait for someone to swim through that area (as relaxing as it is ) Perhaps the Talents behind this excellent software can reproduce the problem.

Anyone else with this experience?

My stats, if it helps:

Asus P4t533-c
P4 2.53 GHz
512 Rambus
Leadtek A250 GeForce 4 Ti 4600 Creative Audigy Gamer
Win XP (sp1)
Direct X 9.0b
Game Commander 2
Joystick: Logitech Freedom 2.4 Cordless (USB)
Mouse: Logitech MX700 Cordless Optical (USB)

Sorry about the length. Cheers,
