I mean they are animals and animals need to sleep too right? So do they sleep?

It depends on your definition of sleep. The dictionary defines sleep as closing your eyelids and resting but fish do not have eyelids, except sharks.
Most fish, even though they might not stop moving, enter rest periods where their brains are blank and they relax. They still look for danger but they are "resting". I think you will find that some "people" sleep this way too.

My goldfish used to swim slower and closer to the top of the fishtank at night- maybe thats the way they sleep.

I am not sure about fish, but whales do. I hear they have a hard time choosing the right comforter.
