Or are all the animals in the water still evil?

Noah was not told to take two of each fish or sea creatures into the Ark. Although some may have drowned when the waters receded, due to being stuck on land (which there have been fossils found on tops of mountains), we know most survived because we have fish and sea creatures today.

When he dumped the water from The Firmament on to Earth, it rose the sea level to the point where the mixed salt from the oceans entered fresh water lakes and rivers, all the fresh water fish were killed by the salt. When enough water had fallen to cover the highest mountains, the salt level was so deluded that the creatures of the sea were killed. As for the Unicorns that Noah took onto The Ark, it is written in his recently discovered journal that 'they were delicious"

Obviously you cannot drown fish. All animals and men are still evil today.
The bible says that eventually God will make the lion lay down by the lamb. The bible also says that in Genises that God gave all the leaves of the earth for the animals to eat, and the grains and fruit to men to eat. God didn't give the gazelle for the lion to eat!
Meat eating was later and not of God.

Musta been all that fresh water. Of course, that leaves all the freshwater critters, or at least the brackish ones, like many crabs and shrimp. Oh, but the bible does say something about shrimp or shellfish being unclean, doesn't it? And if pork is unclean, why did Noah have pigs on board?

Flood=water=fish & sea creatures can swim. Animals weren't and aren't considered "evil".

Common sense. The Bible said every creeping thing. That means land animals. Water animals survived. That is why we have fish skeletons on mountains.

The creatures of the did not become corrupt and thus were spared. A different source suggests that the waters that came up from below were boiling hot and thus the sea creatures were so purged.

It was not necessary to destroy fish.
He was destroying mankind, and he kept those animals that were useful in starting over. Those who could not make it in the flood, he brought into the ark with Noah and family.
He might have saved all animals, but it was not feasible.
He saved those animals that man would need to start over.
For those that were acceptable for food, he brought in 7 each, and those that were not he brought in 2 each.

Not the ones Noah kept in fish tanks on the ark.
Did you think God was so dumb he forgot to tell Noah to put them in the ark too.

He did not appear to 'kill' all of them. He apparently went after the land and air creatures on earth at the time of the flood.
