I believe Pez= Fish....that is alive

           Pescado = fish that you are going to eat

            Marisco=seafood or a type of shellfish

  • Pez is fish in general
  • Pescado is a fish that has been fished (pescado also means "fished")
  • Marisco is any invertebrate seafood (animals only), ie. shellfish and starfish (including molluscs without shell, like the octopus or the squid) plus other sea or river animals without shell or vertebrae (ie. completely soft) that are sold and eaten by people.

Creo que pez es solo y pescado es un groupo,y los mariscos son los camarones y otro tipos de "shellfish".

Sorry, Champ, that's not right. "Pez" is the live fish swimming around in the water, and "pescado" is the fish on your dinner plate. - --Mariana--, AGO 15, 2009
Corrected some spelling, not your logic. - 0074b507, AGO 15, 2009
