This fish fits two 8x3mm magnets inside so other toys such as this otter https://www.printables.com/model/889097-magnetic-otter can hold it. Unlike the original model this fish is two sided to work better as a small toy rather than a refrigerator magnet.
Printing
* Use a raft. The model doesn't have a flat bottom and the tail didn't work without a raft.
* Use 3 walls. I found that the top of the tail often fell off unless it was strong enough with 3 walls. but maybe that's caused by how my printer did the pause.
* Add a pause at the layer where it closes the magnet holes, insert the magnets. Be careful! As I inserted the 2nd magnet it would pull the first magnet out again and shoot it across the room. After putting in the first magnet I covered its magnet hole with my finger as I inserted the 2nd one. They'll need to be oriented correctly to attract each other.
