Freshwater fish absorb all the water they need through their skin, via osmosis, so they never get thirsty. Saltwater fish DO drink though, and filter out the salt in their gills, so I suppose they might get thirsty...

I don't think anyone's ever asked them, why don't you try?
While you're about it, ask them why they don't take a drink before they get thirsty.
