Hi all, I just got a really good deal on a 135 gallon tank. The tank was 100 dollars for the tank, stand, gravel, decorations, some air pumps and some fish. But there is some bad news too. The filter it came with is a filter meant for a 20-40 gallon tank. Now granted there was two of them, but one doesn't work. And the heater doesn't work either. The fish were an interesting mix. A beautiful large angelfish, one silver dollar, one calico fantail goldfish, two long finned zebra danios, and 4 of another kind of fish. They are all the same. I know this is a bad pic, but I'm hoping someone can tell me what it is. I put the goldfish in my goldfish tank, and I already have some long finned zebra danios so I put those in there. I have some other questions, but I will make a seperate post for those. What I really want to know is, what kind of fish is this?

Please identify fish

I don't know what I did wrong. I am trying to attach a photo.

Another photo

I know these pics are bad. Sorry about that. This tank was just set up an hour ago and the filter is too small for the tank.

I agree with glofish. If so, they are genetically modified zebra danios. Look up glofish on the internet and see if that is your fish.

Better pics

No, I don't think they are glofish. They are not at all flourescent. I was able to get some better pics now that the water has unclouded a bit. There are two different types of fish I figured out. I am going to post the first ones here. I think they might be some type of schooling fish. There are four of these and they seem to swim together. They are about 3 inches long. Here are the first ones.

the second ones

These are the second type of fish that I can't identify. There are only two of these in the tank.

The second fish looks like a gold barb if I'm not mistaken.

Glofish are only fluorescent under a black light.

The first fish appear to be nearly identical in shape to the Rosy Reds I once kept, but the color is all wrong. Some other type of minnow maybe? Just throwing around ideas.
 
To me they kind of look like blind cave fish, except they have eyes, so I guess not.
