Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but there is no such thing as water pressure as far as fish are concerned. The reason us humans and our submarines react is we have pockets of air inside of us, and the weight of the water does serve to compress that air. But because water cannot compress, a creature that normally lives 1 mile down wouldn't be affected by any sort of pressure if it came back up to 10 feet under water.
