You specifically said vertebrate, do squids, crabs, starfish, etc do not count as 물고기?
물고기 sometimes has a soft "b" sound. 불고기 is more like a "p".
Trying putting them both in papago.naver.com and you can hear the difference.

The M-sound in Korean initial position can be pronounced so hard that it becomes an B. The same thing happens with N --> D

I have a question - since 물고기 and 불고기 sound so similar, have you ever confused them in real life? It seems like a funny story material... XD
