Thank you for this. I have spent the last 15 years defending my use of the word "fishes" in my documentaries. Now I can refer people to this.

I din undertn the last thng tht u said 'unless you are a Marine biologist you always have to use fish for plural of fish' Because in the entire video you said that if there is more than one species of fish the plural becomes fishes.
