Mez Ultimate Fish Guru Asian Hardfeather Enthusiast Posts: 3300 Votes: 162 Registered: 23-Feb-2001 | i fed this a small clear shrimp (marine, from a marine wholesaler) at work 2 hours i acclimated it and it ate with gusto. I also got one of the really long hairy anglers (expensive!) for the shop and that took a thawed silverside from tongues within hours too. Froggies are a lot easier to get here than mantis, they arent considered rare but not many shops stock them. |

ice2012 Small Fry Posts: 1 Kudos: 0 Votes: 0 Registered: 13-May-2010 | I recently purchased a 6'4" Walden Magic Fish. Its 22.25 wide and 3" thick. Is this considered way too big for a 5'5" 155lb male? Anybody think this might surf more like a funboard due to the thickness and width? So far I've been on a 9'4" longboard(much success) and a 7' funboard(not as much success, lol). I bought the Magic Fish on a whim. Total impulse purchase late night on the internet! :beer: After much internet research, I've come to the conclusion that I made a terrible choice for a first board purchase, but with much effort, I might can surf it. Anybody else started out on a fish? The longboard I've been borrowing for a while has only 1 center fin. This fish has 3 fins. Any reason 3 fins is necessary or does everybody just run a center fin only like most of the guys on longboards? Thanks for any advice. I've really enjoyed reading the posts the last year or so. ------------- [url=http://www.officechairsuk.com]Office Chairs[/url] | [url=http://www.officechairsuk.com]Chairs[/url] |
