فَإِنِّي نَسِيتُ الْحُوتَ وَمَا أَنْسَانِيهُ إِلَّا الشَّيْطَانُ أَنْ أَذْكُرَهُ He said, "Did you see when we retired to the rock? Indeed, I forgot [there] the fish.

فَلَمَّا بَلَغَا مَجْمَعَ بَيْنِهِمَا نَسِيَا حُوتَهُمَا But when they reached the junction between them, they forgot their fish, and it took its course into the sea, slipping away. (Sahih International)
Surah Al-Araf (7:163) Quran.com
This is the end of the list. حُوت was only mentioned 5 times in the Quran. إِذْ تَأْتِيهِمْ حِيتَانُهُمْ يَوْمَ سَبْتِهِمْ شُرَّعًا And ask them about the town that was by the sea - when they transgressed in [the matter of] the sabbath - when their fish came to them openly on their sabbath day, and the day they had no sabbath they did not come to them. Thus did We give them trial because they were defiantly disobedient. (Sahih International)
