Just bought El-Fish (and love it) but having some trouble getting some of the
fish to swim. Specifically the one named DRAGON (shipped as roe). This is a
particulary big fish (128 x 128) and I cannot get it to enter the aquarium. I
have a 386/25 with 4 Meg of memory and a coprocessor. I've taken everything out
of the aquarium and populated it with just one of these fish and it still won't
swim. I've got 512K conventional memory free before running El-Fish. Is there
anyone who has had El-Fish long enough to experience this problem and found a
solution?


Thanks,

Steve

(hoping to see some cool el-fish roe being posted in the near future)
