i think that the body temperature for a fish is usually the same as the ambient temperature of the water in which it naturally lives.

∙ 15y agoFish is best stored at 0 degrees celcius. I store mine on ice in the fridge and use it within 36 hours this prevents it from freezing but keeps it as cold as possible. Most fish retailers will give you ice to get your fish home. Fish can frozen at -20 deg C for up to 3 months but freezing badly affects the quality of most fish.

Check where you bought your fish and on the tag it should have some information about them including there preferred temperature. Be sure not to change the temp to fast as it could very likely kill you fish.
If you just have goldfish they are very hard to kill and room temp is fine.

∙ 11y agoFish are cold blooded, therefore their body temperature is virtually the same as that of the surrounding water they live in.
Each fish species has an optimal temperature that they prefer. Some fish live near the poles and can survive in water near freezing, other fish live near the equator and need water as warm as 30 deg C (85 deg F).

∙ 13y agoThere are many different types of fish, and they require different temperatures, however as a quick guide:
-Goldfish prefer cooler temperatures, around 65-73F
-Tropical Freshwater Fish prefer 77-82F
-Tropical Marine Fish prefer 77-80F
-Discus and some very warm water fish prefer 85-90F
