Just a different perspective, what may be cultural or multicultural for one isn't necessarily culture for another knowing why the focus is on a specific cultural aspect of an activity and what that is, is what gives it its scope.

The activity could reach all of the beliefs you mention by asking the children how and what access to fish / keeping they have.

Christianity has many references to fish (maybe some Children attend sunday school & have talked about these references) & Japanese religions have strong connections with Koi, Chinese dragon boat festival has orgins with the river fish .. the good thing about 'open ended activities is that the Children have the opportunity to lead with the information input - so that while the activity may be extremely well planned before hand, it can still go any which way
