(@NNC)
The normal plural of "fish" is "fish". The older form (fishes) is sometimes used*, but I think "fish" would sound better here. Apart from that, the sentence seems OK to me.

* (from Oxford dictionary) The normal plural of fish is fish ( a shoal of fish; he caught two huge fish). The older form fishes is still used, when referring to different kinds of fish ( freshwater fishes of the British Isles).
