First off, the fish does not sink to the bottom of the pool. So mine keep getting stuck in the skimmer. The instructions say that it will sink in time... 5 hours later no luck. So I tied it to the bottom of the ladder and the grommet ripped out...and it floated back to the surface...grrrrrr....
So then I re-read the instructions (I am kinda of a doofus at times so maybe I missed something) The instructions say if I shake it vigorously in the water it will sink faster. So I put on my underwater iPod (highly recommended by the way) turned on "Hey ya" (no wait...its on my wifes playlist not mine...really...) and I shake it like a Polaroid picture.
They it rips open like parachute at 1500' and the liquid mess empties into the pool....grrrr...
Needless to say, the other Turbos are going back today. One of the worst products I have seen since the Six Flags Bonzi Slide. Save your cash and the chemical balance of your pool and learn from my goober mistake. Avoid the Turbo.

Heard about it first late last summer and used two for the remainder of the season. Worked great I think hard to tell how often (or less often) the heater kicked on, but it seemed less. Fish behaved as advertised, no problems. It did like to swim around the skimmer, but once it sank it stayed down. Buying 6 for this summer, keep one left over for opening next year.
