More Than Fish
Even if your fish theme is of the strictly underwater variety, you should add something besides just fish and water to make things interesting. Coral, crabs, turtles or a pirate's shipwreck add lots of color and interest.

If you can’t find enough sizes in free printable fish wall stencil designs, you can fill in the gaps with fish stickers and decals for your underwater wall scenes along with scuba divers for a baby boy’s nursery or mermaids for a baby girl’s room theme.

Tropical fish are a natural fit for a shipwreck and a long dead pirate that has been hanging around in Davy Jones’ locker for a century or two.

Rustic, lodge style hunting and fishing theme rooms would look great with some trout or bass fish wall stencils on the nursery walls or even the floors.
