Robo Fish Bowl Playset on Amazon

This robotic fish gets activated when it touches water. It swims around, changing direction and diving. The live action makes it super interesting to watch, especially for young children. It runs on batteries you can replace, and stops moving after four minutes to save on power. To make it swim again, simply remove it, dry it off, and drop it back in water.

This fish moves in water just like a real pet.

You can get this fish alone in six different colors: pink, aqua, orange, red, blue, and purple. It makes a great bath toy for young kids. Or buy the aquarium set, which comes with a large clear bowl with a blue tinted rim for maximum viewing enjoyment. Fill the lightweight plastic bowl with water and create your own aquatic environment for your pet fish.

Robo Fish and Robo Turtle pretend pet toys
You can get a fish or turtle in multiple colors.

If you prefer, you can also get a Robo Turtle that has similar realistic movement in bright colors. It fits into the bowl in the aquarium set as well, so your child can keep both pets in the same container. 

No matter which pet you choose, don’t be surprised if your kids spend lots of time watching it swim, or if your living pets also enjoy watching the realistic movement of Robo Fish and Turtle.
