store at 45 degrees or lower in refrigerator on top of crushed ice, and with crushed ice on top of fish, in a drip pan for drainage.
store at 45 degrees or lower in refrigerator in a metal pan covered with plastic wrap and labeled.

Explanation:

Proper fish storage involves keeping it cold to slow spoilage. Storing fish at 41 degrees or lower on crushed ice (both below and on top) in a drip - pan for drainage helps maintain freshness by keeping the fish cold and allowing melted ice water to drain away. This is better than just using a covered pan as the ice provides better cooling and moisture management.

Answer:

Store at 41 degrees or lower in refrigerator on top of crushed ice, and with crushed ice on top of fish, in a drip pan for drainage.
