Do hot objects fall through water faster?

"Today I put the Leidenfrost effect to the test! Im trying out a great question from somebody on my facebook page. He wanted to know if a hot object will fall faster than a cold object through water. I set up my fishtank and dropped red-hot steel balls through water to see if they fall faster. This would be a great science fair project if you don't burn down your house."
