Fish and humans both use sexual reproduction. This means that one sperm cell (from the father) and one egg cell (from the mother) combine to form an embryo. Now the embryo gets half of its genetic material from each parent.

Sexual reproduction doesn't neccessarily mean an organism "has sex" as we know it, however. Fish release sperm and egg cells into the water instead of physically having sexual intercourse. When the egg is fertilized outside of the mother's body, it's called external fertilization.

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.
