Why?  There are lots of m-fish left.  No need to go fucking tradition up
yet.  I might kill if you go for s-fish and go .. ah .. "squid", duh.

We still haven't used menhaden (This would be better for a mac,
because there's a submarine called the USS Menhaden, and submarines are
indeed sunked ships!)

and, ah ... muskellunge

and, hmm ... melanopus ... the Tomato clown.

Here are some other useful ones:

margarita, mirror shiner, mimic shiner, Modoc sucker, Mayan tetra,
mosquitofish, molly, mud sunfish, mud darter, Mexican darter.

So many cool geek jokes!
