I've been enjoying Oblivion and have been playing it with all settings maxed. When I'm in the water, if I position the mouse just right, I can see under the water - its as clear as can be. If I move the mouse downward just a little, it gets very hard to see under the water - its pretty dark . Is this a bug or is it supposed to be this way? Thanks !!

Also, is there a potion/spell that you can use to be able to see under water better or to be able to hold your breath longer? Thanks !!

There are both water breathing spells and enchantments. And water walking.

I get that glitch too. I've also seen it in other games.

Isn't that the case with a lot of games? There's a very tiny region where your eye is under the surface of the water but the mode hasn't changed to fog stuff. For what it's worth, I'd suggest getting the "better water" mod, which turns the water from the default murky blue to something much more clear.
