I am pretty sure you call a bunch of them fish but some say "fishes". (1 fish, 2 fishes') or (1 fish, 2 fish)?Not a big deal but I want to know how you say it properly.Thanx.

You would say "fish" if you were talking about one fish, or multiple fish of the same species, but "fishes" if you had multiple fish of different species. Ex. "The fish in my tank are Guppies." or "The fishes in my tank are Guppies and Mollies."

Fish and Fishes are both correct words!
Fish- seems older and more muture!
Fishes- seems like something a young child wold say!

For more than 1 fish I say (fishies) but, to my daughter who is 18 months and other little kids. To older kids or adults, I say fish.

fishes i dont think is a word so if your talking about 2 or more fish, you would say fish.
