Foods that are left out in room temperature for more than an hour can begin bacteria growth. Our stomach acids can kill some of these bacterias but not all and some can make you very sick. Keep foods OUT of the danger zone- Above 45 degrees and Below 145 degrees. Between these temperatures bacteria lives and breeds on our foods.

Fresh tuna should not be exposed to ambient temperatures above 40°F for more than 4 hours cumulatively , IF for any portion of that time it was exposed to temperatures above 70°F
OR
The tuna should not be exposed to ambient temperatures above 40°F for more than 8 hours cumulatively , IF it was not exposed to ambient temperatures above 70°F for any portion of that time.
The problem is, unless you caught the fish, you will have no idea what the time-temperature exposure has been. So I'd leave it unrefrigerated for only the length of time it take to season it for cooking.

Why cooked fish might not keep in as long in refrigerator?
If you are asking why cooked fish isn't keeping as long as it did before in your refrigerator, there are several possibilities, including: # The refrigerator temperature isn't holding as cold as it was before # The fish was not stored in the coldest part of the refrigerator # The cooked fish was not refrigerated soon after cooking # The cooked fish was exposed to more spoilage organisms at some point
How different cooking timing affect grilled fish?
If you grill the fish too long, it will dry out drastically and won't be as good. You should time it so that the inside of the fish is flaky and not watery, and the outside is lightly browned. The timing and the temperature go hand in hand, so you should determine the correct temperature before putting your fish on the grill.
Hi guys just watching MasterChef and George said fish should be at room temperature before cooking any ideas as to why?
Fish, meat, and poultry cook more evenly if it reaches room temperature before cooking. If it's still cold, the outside heats up quickly but the center is still cool. You can end up with a dry exterior to cook the protein long enough to get the center cooked properly. If it starts out room temperature, the center heats up closer to the same time the outside cooks.
