You can use the existing $filter service. I updated the fiddle above http://jsfiddle.net/gbW8Z/12/

 $scope.showdetails = function(fish_id) {
     var found = $filter('filter')($scope.fish, {id: fish_id}, true);
     if (found.length) {
         $scope.selected = JSON.stringify(found[0]);
     } else {
         $scope.selected = 'Not found';
     }
 }

Angular documentation is here http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.filter:filter
