Edit: as I see the post I was replying to has been removed, I've deleted entirely the quote of it (the contents of the quote were already removed by a mod, but I might as well remove the quote itself as well). For anyone coming to this post late, someone had very rudely told OP that he was wrong and that the plural of fish is not fishes. My post was pointing out to this now unnamed rude individual that in fact the plural of fish can be either fish or fishes, depending on the context.
