I would only use fresh water fish fit for human consumption, and i would not use it as a stable diet. I would imagine that sea water fish could cause problems eventually due to the amount of salt.

dont by live fish from aquatic shops the chemicals they put in the water will be harmfull to your bosc
fish from the fish mongers will be fine

1. saltwater fish have no more salt in their tissue than freshwater fish
2. some freshwater fish have high levels of thiaminase in their tissues, an enzyme which breaks down thiamin (one of the B vitamins). Feeding a reptile exclusively freshwater fish can cause problems.
