There are many different forms of animal locomotion, the three main ones being
-running
-swimming
-and flying
Each of these have their own unique advantages and disadvantages. In running animals have to deal with friction with the ground, however in swimming buoyancy counteracts the affects of gravity and the animal(fish) has to deal more with friction, also called "drag" when swimming through the water. This is why you often see fish with very streamlined bodies, this is to reduce drag from the water and allows them to swim faster.
