Fish is either

white fish (fish with white, milky looking flesh):

cod, hake,turbot, plaice, haddock, halibut, skate, bass, sole...

or

oily fish (rich in omega 3 + 6 oils which are very good for you)

sardines,herrings, mullet, trout, salmon, kippers, mackrel...
Yes, most fish is white meat. Some fish - tuna springs to mind - is not white and is sometimes mistaken for red meat, but nutritionists usually class all fish as white meat.
