In That Water is the second studio album by American hip-hop duo Ghetto Twiinz. It was released in 1997 through Upper Level/Rap-A-Lot Records.

Critical reception
AllMusic's Leo Stanley wrote that "much of In That Water is simply gangsta clichés, yet there are moments where the Ghetto Twiinz make it work, either because they have a clever rhyme or a solid hook".[1]
