I got a private message asking me about the plural form of fish. Here´s the answer which you might find useful!
Fish as a countable noun has two plural forms: fish and fishes.
1) fish is the more usual form, used when referring to a mass of them in the water to be seen or caught: i.e the number of fish in coastal waters has decreased. 2) fishes is used to refer to different species of fish or to talk about them scientifically. He studies in particular the fishes of the Indian Ocean. He is concentrating his studies on fishes, frogs and grabs living in Australia. Is it clear enough?
