I do a lot of water evaluation for a living.
How you test your water depends on what you're trying to find and what you're using the water for.
If you're checking pH or ammonia in a fish tank, you get a kit for that. Same for a pool.
If you're worried about your drinking water from a well or something like that, then you need to get an idea of what could be wrong, take samples and send it to a laboratory, or have a lab test your water for the usual suspects, depending.
Anyways, in order to give proper advice, I'd need to know what you're worried about, and what context the situation is in.
just saw that you said it was a 'natural body' and it was 'all sorts of colors'. Odds are its metals in the water leaching from an old mine or something like that. bright bluegreens and a 'wrong' red shade are good indicators. Again more details mean I can give better advice.
