 The Robo Fish has been an enchanting addition to my home, captivating both the young and the young at heart with its lifelike swimming action. This robotic swimming fish has not only added a dynamic element to our living space but has also served as an engaging and maintenance-free pet alternative. Its realistic movements and vibrant design have turned our fishbowl into a mesmerizing spectacle, offering endless entertainment and fascination.

From the moment I activated the Robo Fish in water, I was impressed by how convincingly it mimics the swimming patterns of a real fish. Watching it dart around, change directions, and even dive has been a source of constant amusement. It's remarkable how such a simple toy can so effectively capture the essence of fish behavior, bringing a piece of the aquatic world into our home without the need for feeding or tank cleaning.

The build quality of the Robo Fish is noteworthy. It's durable enough to withstand the enthusiastic hands of children eager to play with their new aquatic friend. This resilience is essential for a toy that spends all its time in water, and the Robo Fish has proven itself to be both reliable and long-lasting. The attention to detail in its design, from the scales to the tail fin, adds to its charm, making it a visually appealing addition to any room.

Another aspect I appreciate is the educational value the Robo Fish offers. It's been a fantastic tool for sparking curiosity about marine life and the mechanics behind robotic movement. Discussions about how the fish works and why real fish move the way they do have been both fun and informative, making the Robo Fish not just a toy but a learning experience.

The convenience factor of the Robo Fish cannot be overstated. As someone who has always appreciated the beauty of aquatic life but hesitated at the commitment required for a real fish tank, this robotic fish has been the perfect compromise. It brings the aesthetic and interactive benefits of having fish without any of the upkeep.

**TL;DR:** The Robo Alive Robo Fish has exceeded my expectations, offering a captivating and hassle-free way to enjoy the beauty of fish swimming in my home. Its realistic movements, durability, and educational potential make it a hit for families or anyone looking to add a touch of whimsy and wonder to their living space. This robotic fish has provided hours of enjoyment and curiosity, making it a standout addition to our collection of interactive toys.

The robo fish are great and my son loves them. Ordered a Blue and a Red, and the Red one stopped working in less than an hour. I thought the battery ran out so I replaced new batteries but it still doesn't work. :( But the blue one works great and my son plays with it every day.

We took these on vacation with us and ended up making it a race to see who could find them the fastest in the pool.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fun but flawed
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2023
My kids love these, I just wish I did too. We have used them in the bath every night for a month, and to be fair 4 of the 5 are still functioning. So, 5 stars for fun, 1 star for the parent/maintenance experience. Following are the flaws that, if fixed, would have resulted in a 5 star review.

Let me start with the battery and battery compartment issues. There is a small manyfacturing defect that has impacted all 5 of our units, where a bit of excess plastic protrudes out and makes the rubber seal fail (location of the excess plastic is pointed to with a screwdriver bit in picture 1). This has caused 3 of the units, with the original batteries installed, to allow water into the battery compartment and caused the batteries to rust. One of them had so much water it shorted a battery, but that unit did survive. Scraping off that little bit of plastic with a finger nail fixes the issue, and since doing that we have had no further issues with water getting in the battery compartment.

Now, you might think that I would turn around and say that they should just make sure there was no excess plastic where the seal meets the body. However, I think removing the compartment altogether and shipping these with a rechargeable battery would also fix my second gripe: These fish chew through batteries. As mentioned, we have used these a lot and have already gone through 40 batteries in about a month with 4 fish. A rechargeable battery with a little charge 'pad' would have fixed 2 issues and I personally would have paid more for that feature.

Finally, the last issue, and why we are running 4 fish instead of all 5 we have purchased. On the back on one of the units, water has gotten through the rubber gasket leading to the fin. Water droplets are visible right next to the controller which is the likely cause to it failing outright (picture 2). I don't fault the design on this one, we just got a lemon that will be returned/refunded. It's a bummer, but manufacturing issues happen.

So, to the manufacturer: Make a version 2 with rechargeable batteries and we will try them out.
