Mutsu Water Looper

Mutsu Water Looper is a Japanese robot fish by Tomy.
It swims around in its bowl making cute noises.
Once you make friends with it, you can ask it to do tricks, like singing or dancing, by using the remote control.
At first it's very shy and hides at the back of the bowl wimpering, but if you carefully knock on the bowl and is patient with it for an hour or so it will reach level 1 and be ready to play.
At the higher levels it will be friendlier, make more cute noises and do more tricks.
It won't do tricks very often, and if you keep pushing it it will just ignore you.
Scroll down for a complete chart of the tricks it can do and the remote control signals to use.
