Being a vegetarian is not a religion. It's not a matter of whether you "can" or "can't" eat something, because no one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to do anything. It's a matter of what you choose to eat. If you want to cut out meat except for fish, you can do that, which would technically make you a pescetarian but there is really no need to label yourself based on what you eat.
Lots of people who are pescetarians will call themselves vegetarians when they are talking to people who eat meat, but not when they are talking to other vegetarians. This seems to piss off a lot of vegetarians. I, for one think there are bigger problems in this world than that, but that's just me.

No, a vegetarian does not eat any meat, including fish. Anyone who says they are vegetarian and still eats fish is terribly wrong.
A pescatarian eats no meat except fish, but just remember that you can't prance around with the title of vegetarian unless you really are one.

No. Its called something else if you eat fish, fish is an animal so if you eat it your not a vegetarian

well as i know being a vegetarian you have to not to use all animal meat products which includes meat. but still you can use diary products from the animal but nothing else which includes animal killing/death
also the fish is still has meat and blood so its a still a water animal .

if you want to be a complete vegetarian then no, you can not eat fish. if you would like to eat fish, but no other meats, then you can become what is called a pescatarian.

yes you can, but you won't be a full vegetarian, just a Pescetarian. Vegans wont use any animal products at all, but ultimately, yes you can.

Does a fish have a face?

Vegetarians still eat fish, eggs, milk and other dairy products and Vegans don't eat any of those and obviously meat.
