The plural of the same kind of fish is fish. When there are multiple kinds of fish they are called fishes. I don’t know what multiples of different kinds of fish are called.

That's easy you just pluralize the word for multiples of a single kind of fish.

So: fishes.

Except that it isn't and Pterodactyl isn't even real, it's either Pterodactylus, Pteranodon (the one you think of) or Pterosaur (the order).
