Introduction
My copy of F.I.S.H. for some reason doesn't have the tutorial videos playing at all. So, this guide exists for those with a similar problem, or for those who want a quick guide on how each fish's cue works.
Notation
This guide will use the notation described in this section.

A beat is subdivided into 4, starting with a number:
1e+a

This subdivision is not fixed, and if clarification is needed (such as for triplets), it will be made in that level's section.

Consecutive beats have this first number incremented:
1e+a 2e+a 3e+a 4e+a ...

Beats in parentheses are rest beats and have no inputs.
In the same way, beats not in parentheses are input beats. Do your inputs on these.

Only the "strong" parts of a beat will be notated. For example, if a fish starts on an off-beat and comes on on the off-beat of 3, it looks like this: (Note the square bracketed numbers giving the start of the each beat.)
([1]+ [2]+) [3]+
Level 1 - Tuna Training
Tunas show with 2 exclamation marks before coming in on the 3rd beat.

If the tuna's cues start on 1, the pattern is:
(1 2) 3
Level 2 - Upstream Underpass
A new cue is introduced here. I'm unsure of the name because I can't see the tutorials.

The fish comes in on 1 in a highlighted bar, and requires you to input twice on eighth notes:
(1) 2+
Level 3 - Barracuda
Barracudas (?) are introduced in this level.

They come in on the offbeat of 2 after 3 red exclamation points:
(1+ 2)+
Level 4 - Exit 404
A new Swordfish (?) appears in this level. It comes in on 2.
(1) 2
Level 5 - Onion Canion
No new fish in this level.
Level 6 - Quiet!
No new fish.

Level 7 - Swordfish-Sailfish Speedway
A Swordfish is introduced in this level. The cue usually starts on beat 3, and you need 5 inputs to stop it.
[code] (3 4 +a1) 2 + 3 + 4 [/code]
