Barbara was leaning toward flounder, a wicked distractor since they have eyes on only one side, making them look like half a fish. According to the legend, the waters parted so violently that a fish was split right down the middle. My dad confirmed that flounder is called dag Moshe Rabbenu (Moses fish) in Israel. Apparently, sole also have this trait.

I thought she was going to answer incorrectly because she talked about flounder having eyes on only one side, which would make sense if they were split. She didn't get the "parting the Red Sea = Moses" connection.
