Battery Operated Fish Instructions

Taking care of real fish can be a chore --- you must feed them regularly, check the chemicals in their water and you must relocate pond fish indoors during the winter months. Battery operated fish are a maintenance-free alternative to live fish. They can be used as decorations in an indoor aquarium or pond, as a virtual pet for your child or as toys in your pool because they are resistant to chlorine. Battery operated fish move their tails allowing them to swim in water just as real fish do.
