what is fish stock?
Fish stock is made by gently simmering bones and scraps of fish, along with aromatic vegetables and herbs to create a broth. If you can’t make it or find it in stores, I think you should be able to use vegetable stock (obviously it’s not exactly the same but it’s probably the closest).
