They are almost neutrally buoyant, meaning the forces acting against the fish to make it sink are about equal to the forces inside the fish causing it to float.

Buoyancy and Swimming When an object is neutrally buoyant, it has as much tendency to float as it does to sink, and rests suspended in liquid seeming to hover without rising or falling.
