is it too difficult to go to foodnetwork.com and find recipes?
I don't trust their recipes
In fact most of them are terrible
With ethnic food like this you're better off asking the average Joe. Eventually you'll run into someone who knows a family recipe or something of the sort.
Learning how to cook authentic food isn't easily done by googling in my experience.

I assume you already enjoy eating ceviche and have a general idea of what it is supposed to taste like. I think scallops would be a great substitute for fish in this case. Play around with it, Lemon/Lime/Orange juices, salt, pepper, fresh hot peppers, red onion, garlic, cilantro or parsley, cooked shrimp, crab meat, octopus, squid...
We also eat something called campechana, which is more Mexican than ceviche is. It's a tomato based, seafood cocktail. All the seafood is cooked before hand, usually shrimp and lump crab meat. Chopped, seeded tomatoes, diced onion, tomato juice(V8 or Clamato), lime, salt, pepper, cilantro, diced jalapenos, and diced avocado. Usually want the mixture about the consistency of ceviche.
