It depends on the type of fish. Some have good eyesight, and others do not. It also depends on how deep they operate, and how clear the water is. The eyes of fish work on the same visible light spectrum as our own eyes. Some fish which live in water where there is no light are capable of creating their own phosphorescent light, and others are blind.

Can fishes see in the ocean when it is dark and why?

Fish don't need their eyes to see. They use other sensory organs. The sensory organs are connected to it's nervous system so the fish can see slight vibrations in the water, so they know where the fish are and not bump into them. The fish can also tell how far away the fish is and it can tell where a rock is by the vibrations around it.
