Trivia

 * The episode title in the English dub was originally titled as "Into the Depths on Andros".
 * In the Italian dub, the transformation phrase "Magic Winx, Sirenix" was used, but in the English and other international dubs, "Winx Sirenix" was used.
 * In the English dub, Sirenix is pronounced as both "Sirenix" and "Syrenix" throughout the episode with the latter being the Italian's version of the pronunciation.
 * It is revealed that the Winx can transform back to any transformation they have earned throughout the series as seen with the case of Sirenix.
 * This also marks the return of Sirenix since "The Flying School" for Stella, Flora, Aisha, Tecna, and Musa and "The Golden Auditorium" for Bloom respectively.
 * The monster form of the shark transformed by Valtor looks very similar to the Kaiju Slattern from the movie Pacific Rim and might have been inspired by it.
 * Bloom's new Sirenix sequence is the only one which does not show her body keyed-out.

Easter Eggs

 * Obscurum mentions about attacking the star of Callisto, a planet which had not been mentioned since Season 1.
 * The cave where the Winx trap the mutant shark in is similar to the cave where the Beast of the Depths resides in.

 * Bloom's outlines change width after her mid-transformation pose.
 * Her blue-eyeshadow also dissapears during most of the sequence.
 * Musa's highlights disappear during zoomed-out shots.
 * Tecna's string and pearls disappear when she clenches her fists.
 * A small part of her dress also dissapears in the same scene.
 * The shading on her body does not match her dress near the end of her sequence.
 * Part of Flora's arm accessories only appear after she un-clenches her fist
 * The sparkles on her outfit disappears as the sequence closes, and prior to that, are improperly aligned with the dress.
 * .When she rotates there is clearly missing sections of her outfit
