Get your fileting knife and expose the lateral line along the sides. This is the vibration sensor on a fish. Usually it's visible on the outside of the scales along the sides of the fish.

Hayley,
I don't know about other fish, but in a processing plant where I worked, one of the guys would cut a funny shaped bone (ear) out of the heads of saltwater rockfish. He used them to make earrings. They are flat and about an inch to two and a half inches long. So, the answer to your question is yes they have ears and the ears are in their head.

sure do they just aren't that easy to spot as they are internal and have either a very small or non existant opening, as with most ears they are found in the head area. they also have a lateral line that runs along there body that are pressure sensitive so detect subtle changes in water pressure enabling them to synchronize in schools

They sense vibrations with their whole bodies.
