A pair of the golden-colored ones of these creatures is one of the Eight Auspicious Signs of Buddhism. This creature is exemplified by the first avatar of Vishnu, Matsya. One of these creatures ate nine hazelnuts from the Well of Wisdom before being eaten by Finn McCool, and Jesus (*)  fed 5000 people with only five loaves of bread and two of these creatures. After avoiding preaching in Nineveh, the prophet Jonah was swallowed by one of these creatures, and the Ichthys, or the "Jesus" type of this creature, is a symbol for Christianity. For ten points, identify these animals that swim around in the water.
