It is just as pictured. I read the reviews and should have been expecting that it only works when the sun is directly on the solar panel.  I need to get some kind of stand to put it on or else I have to bring it inside every evening due to deer knocking it over at night.  Have not opened the second one and may return it.  It started as soon as I put it in the sun. Had a little trouble figuring out the assembly where the fish goes. Never did find where the three suction cups need to go.
