As I was feeding my fish this morning I noticed a little fry swimming along the bottom of the tank. What is it? I have no clue, could be guppy, platy, or maybe balloon Molly but I'm not sure about the last one wouldn't I be able to tell if its a balloon Molly?

How big is it i have both black mollies and guppys and my mollie fry are much bigger then the guppies. I dont think its a mollie because all of my mollie fry were a solid color but that might just be because there black mollies.
 
Looks like a platy fry to me, if I had to guess. I've had platy and Molly fry, and the Molly fry tend to have longer-looking bodies. I can't tell for sure though, and I have no idea what a guppy fry looks like. Just wait a little while for it to start growing. What a cool mystery!
