We have some inflatable balls that look like ornaments that we want to put in our pool as decoration. Can someone recommend a weight that is safe for pools that won't discolor or damage my pool. I have a saltwater pool with pebbletec. Thanks for any recommendations/suggestions.

Welcome to TFP!!!
Fill a gallon (or 1/2 gallon) milk jug with sand to about 1/2 way, then fill with water. Tie the rope to the handle and drop in...

Could you use the weights the use for duck decoys. Not sure what they are made of.
Can you put some water in the balls?
Maybe about 10% water to add weight.
Maybe use fishing line to keep the balls in a specific location if that is what you are going for.

Can't fill the balls with water. Even if I could I need them to sit upright and not rollover. As I mentioned in my original post, the pool is pebbletec.

Tape or crazy-glue a length of string to the ornaments (unless they have a spot you can thread the thread through) to keep them upright or in the orientation you want them to be in. Fill ziplock-style bags with sand or rocks and thread the string/fishing line through the top and sink the bags.
That black VHB (very high bond) tape works everywhere, though you may never get it off your decorations. Maybe put a small wire tie on the decorations with the VHB tape so you can easily use them again next year.
Merry Christmas!
