I use peanut oil exclusively and try for 375 to 400. depending on size of fillets , it can only take 3 to 5 mins. As far as when to tell if they are done....this pretty much comes with experience....or a timer. I've found that using the "when they float they are done" rule isn't always a good one. Often the fish are overdone. Fish "doneness" is a personal preference though. I like mine so the center is just "opaque" while others like it flaking all the way through.
