After that nice build up from Stanley, I'm sorry to say at first thought I can't think of any Lewis story like the one you describe, Larry. Lewis does use the image of fish in a tank a couple of times in Miracles, but I don't recall that specific usage.

Now, Philip Yancey tells a story like that, in his book The Jesus I Never Knew, in the chapter called 'Birth: The Visited Planet'. Is it possible that his book is the one your thinking of?
Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.
