Exactly right. Two years later and it's still not fixed.
"There are fish..." is plural, "fiŝaĵoj."
"There is a fish..." is singular, "fiŝaĵo."

Isn't "fiŝaĵo" uncountable so "estas fiŝaĵo..." = "there is (some amount of) fish..."?
I also read the sentence like this:
"There are {fish and vegetables} on the plate." = "There is fish on the plate and there are vegetables on the plate."
Is that wrong?

Yes, food such as fiŝaĵo, porkaĵo, and beefaĵo are uncountable. You are correct
