I checked my tank a few minutes ago and startled a small fish swimming in the water lettuce. I have three neon tetras and three mollies in this tank. I did add some new plants a week ago. I have raised mollie fry and these do not look like mollies. They are swimming in the top of the tank in the water lettuce. They are dark in color but kinda have some lighter, shiny patches along the middle of their body. The rear fins on top and bottom are longer than mollies. They look like miniature neon tetras without the color. They stay at the top of the tank and dart into clumps of moss and plants when disturbed. They are schooling also. I have emailed the person I bought the plants from to see what fish he has in with the plants I bought. I did get snails which turned out to be ramshorns. I wanted some of those so I did not mind. I didn't dip the plants when I got them. I just three them into my holding tank that has mystery snails only for a week. Then I planted what I wanted in my main tank and planted the rest in my 10g snail only tank. The photos are not the best but I hope someone can identify them.
