@WonderWartHog99 fish have to have scales.

@WonderWartHog99 Leviticus (11:9-10) states that one should eat "whatsoever hath fins and scales in the waters" but not to eat "all that have not fins and scales in the seas." no octopus, no eels, no shark, no catfish, no sturgeon, the list goes on and on.

@glennlab Thanks for enlightening me. Kosher dietary laws are strange although they sometimes make sense like don't eat the owls.

@WonderWartHog99 Most made sense for the time they were given, scavengers and bottom feeders were more likely to be infected by fecal colliform and other pathogens because the sewers ran into the water, pigs were suseptable to both parasites and species jumping viruses.
