Hello , I do not own this machine but I am inquiring about if there is anything that can be done about the Fish on the play field. They are slightly raised and are causing the ball to go wacky. Have any of you ever heard of this and if there is anything that can be done? Thank you

Heat them up and pound them down or vice grip them down, you can google more to figure it out. Search for "lowering playfield inserts."

This is a common problem with ALL playfields that are made using glued in inserts.

As above - LIGHTLY heat with a heat gun and hit them down with a soft hammer. I would apply a little 5 min epoxy underneath after reseating them.

Awesome! Thank you so much for the reply. I will definitely bring this up to the person who owns the machine.
