It says "as it rained down" from the sky -- once it hits the water it is no longer raining down.

I think it’s a reasonable assumption that once they were breathing it, there was more of it concurrently raining down, so the description seems fine to me.

It would continue to fall through the water but a lower speed. The water would be filled with tectonic debris which the fish breathed in.
