Mix lime juice and vinegar in a separate bowl.

Add sliced onions, bell peppers, and carrots to the fish.

Pour the lime and vinegar mixture over the fish and vegetables.

Add minced garlic, thyme, bay leaves, black peppercorns, and cayenne pepper to the mixture.

Season with salt and stir gently to combine all ingredients.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 24 hours.

After marinating, taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Serve chilled, garnished with cucumber and scallions.
