How were fish made?

I'd suggest that you read the book of Genesis. It will tell you how everything was created. The same way apes evolved into humans, through mutation. Also, the same way new viruses and other forms of life are coming into existence today. I found a program on Discovery explaining the difference between ray-fin fish and lobe-fin fish to be very educational. Lobe-fin fish are our earliest ancestors with the same basic skeleton as humans having distinct finger bones and limbs. Ray-fin fish have the same limb that current fish have such as catfish or goldfish. They remained on that evolutionary tree where we humans branched from lobe-fin fish.
