In a non-reactive bowl, combine the diced fish and shrimp. Pour the fresh lime juice over the seafood, ensuring it is fully submerged. Stir gently.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the seafood is opaque and 'cooked' by the acidity of the lime juice. Stir occasionally.
