If it comes apart easily it’s done. I always keep an eye on my fish- easier to cook a bit longer than risk overcooking! Also don’t forget that residual heat once out of the pan will also finish the cooking process. Fish like tuna you can serve more raw than you would, say something like hake so keep that in mind too! Good luck :)
