Also, as WocusWoman replied, try the flakey fish, which is salt water fish, you shouldn't have any problems with that, just make sure, the fresher the better.
If you want to stay away from fried food, you could also try baking the fish covered in aluminum foil, with butter, salt, pepper,onion, and a lemon cut in four. You can either bake in the oven or cook on the grill. I've found it very delicious myself, and easy clean up.

i remember a radio commercial for a store called fresh fields that said you should not be able find the sea food counter blindfolded. supposedly fresh fish doesnt stink, its only after it starts to go bad that it gets that fishy smell.ive been told that one good clue to how fresh the fish is,if youre getting a whole fish, is to check the eyes. the more cloudy the eyes the older the fish is
you might try an international grocery store, the ones ive been to here in dc have most of thier fish live. i cant eat finfish but i love me some shellfish, crab,lobster,shrip and oysters......give 'em a dash of yucatan sunshine and yum.
