I have searched for costumes on-line and so far have found only cheesey Nemo comstumes, that are overpriced and not much else. I would like to try and put something together with clothes and/or fabric. Maybe someday, with a little luck and help, I will be the mom who makes cool costumes for her kids.

Well you could put a bright or sparkly leotard on her and some bright colored leggings or sweat pants. Then take strips of bright colored fabric and pin them to the waist of her pants or leggings but only on the back half of her. Then put her hair in a bun and paint her face with scales and wa la instant fish.
Also if that doesn't work for you when i was little i went as I puppy wearing white sweatpants and a white sweat shirt and my mom pinned brown patches of felt on me then she painted a black spot around my eye, and my nose black. Lastly, she put puppy ears on me.
I was also greatly loved when I went as a cookie.
I wore black sweat pants and A black sweat shirt. Then my mom cut two circles of cardboard(both the same size) out of a flattened carboard box. She drew black chocolate chips on the cardboard with a magic marker. Then she cut a bite mark pattern out of the corner of each circle. Then she attached both of the pieces of cardboard with 2 pieces of yarn so that it could be slung over my shoulders and have a circle on my front and my back. she finished it off with a Got Milk? on the back of the cookie and put white face paint over my lip. It was loved greatly!
hope that helped!
good luck!

I just looked online and found several sites that give this information, using products from the home.
Go to Google and type in "Kids halloween costume patterns fish" or something similar.

You can't ever go wrong with pirate costumes. :) They are good for girls and boys. Plus, you can add or subtract all you want. Just have the basics down and you can do what you want to it. In fact, you could buy cheap clothes and have fun adding your personal effects to them. That way, everyone is happy. ^-^

Maybe a bright colored leotard and tights, with fins made from wide wire ribbon? You could even paint scales with fabric paint-then just face makeup to match.
