  Under $20 each, free postage. I have dealt with Tiny deal 3 or 4 times. Good to deal with, but postage can take a few weeks.

    Thank you !

    Hmmm slightly dangerous to dispose, starting to think these flying fish are way too much of a gimmick for the cost + refill price

  gizmodo said they paid about $20 for a helium fill, these things look cool but not paying that every time it runs out

  My local Spotlight filled my shark for $5.00! It's been floating round the house for about three weeks on the same fill. These things are alot bigger than they look, se be prepared to want to deflate it after a few days.

  A guy at work bought these… It cost him $9 to fill one at the local party supply store and $5 to fill the other at his local florist.

  It looks pretty cook having a shark fly around your workplace! But got old rather quick. Kid could play with them for hours if the batteries lasted longer.

  Helium is expensive. Use hydrogen instead. It is lighter, and leaks more slowly.
  How many litres does it need?
  I wonder if methane would be too heavy for this?

    That's what the guy who filled the Hindenburg said :)

      You are propagating a myth. The hydrogen-filled Zeppelins had a far better safety record (perfect before Hindenburg) than the US/UK helium airships.

        Correlation is not causation.

        It is far more likely that German's were better at manufacturing airships than US/UK, than a flammable gas being safer than an inert gas.

        In your eagerness to demonstrate your knowledge of dirigibles you ended up missing the point entirely.

        Which is that for two equivalent fish balloons - the safer gas to choose is helium because it is non-flammable.

        @Prosserd
        Well the thing is, hydrogen only reacts when there is a flame… Unless you're an idiot and you deliberately fly it into the stove, hydrogen balloons are pretty safe… unless you wanna do some anti-smoking campaign al qaeda style >=]

    lol, people generally prefer inert gases

    I'm not sure how much baked beans and brussels sprouts you're gonna need to generate the requisite volume of methane in the home anyway! ;)
