Is there a site that gives the proper pronunciation of fish name? I always feel like an idiot going into stores and tyring to say them.

Not that I am aware of, although there are probably several sites that have some glossaries that contain a few pronounciations.
Only feel dumb if you go into a store and ask for a 'marijuana fish' (arowana), 'chiclet' (cichlid), or a 'gourmet' (gourami)....and yes, I have heard all three.
