While some species (Goldfish etc) have been selectively bred by aquarists for their colour the majority of fish have colours to help them stay alive or find a mate in some way. In some species it makes them stand out because they are poisonous and their colours stop other creatures from attacking them. This preserves the lives of both the potential hunter and the hunted. All fish need to hide for one reason or another and camouflage is a main reason for most colours.
