That's a good question. Not all fish have scales. Swordfish, catfish, cod, mackerel, whiting, sturgeons, sharks and eels are just a few examples of fish without scales.

The mahi-mahi fish does have scales, and is a clean fish, suitable for human consumption, according to The Bible. Leviticus 11:9 states: "Of all the creatures living in the water of the seas and the streams, you may eat any that have fins and scales".

Mahi-mahi meets the criteria of having both fins and scales.
