water is always world and uses specific water textures
now if you want to have moving water i.e. surface texture you can so do this instead
make box - no draw all sides, top side apply water - that box will then be the actual water
then make one box, all no draw, 1 unit above the water may even aligned or merged inside in your water box. make this a func_brush - non solid - on the top put on your moving texture and rotate it until the texture is going the way you want.
if you just want water with a current, make water box put pushzone in it
you're done

What is the name of the water if it's not func_detail?

Like others said, don't tie your water solids to anything; simply paint its top face with a water texture while the other 5 faces are painted with "tools/toolsnodraw". Type "water" and available water textures will show up. 2Fort uses "water/water_2fort", for example.

So there's no other thing to it?
No func_detail, nothing?

Nothing else to it. No func_detail or anything else.
If your water is not appearing in-game, make sure the Run VIS step of the compile is turned on and that there are no errors in the compile log.
