Fish Identification?

[Spishkey]

sorry its me again (busy on here today arent i?)

i have two lots of fish which to be honest, im not sure what they are. can anyone give me there names? im thinking one is a kind of tetra neon thingy? but the other i have no idea. they were a present from my other half so iwasnt there to see the names and he cant remember!

(the fish with the blue eyes/black stripe)





and

the little fish above the zebra fish on this pic please! it is usually a 'top' dweller but does come down now and then when the corys have lunch

also if you have a long finned zebra fish which has spots not stripes, is that still a zebra danio or is it a leopard one? do leopard and zebra ones breed together?

the bottom one could be some kind of archer fish? It's probably a very bad guess but i cant see it well on my computer

if it has spots it's a leopard danio and I think its possible for them to breed with zebras

first one looks like a black neon tetra

Looks a lot like Emperor Tetra to me. (Nematobrycon palmeri)
the bottom fish is my bag....Its a Killifish
Epiplatys dageti Monrovia.

I agree with BigC

oooh a killifish? never ever heard of one of those before! off to do some googling thank you!

top one looks v v like my emperor tetras. does it kinda turn iridescent from certain angles? mine do... I think mine are blue emperors tho.

No idea about the second fish though!

 

[Spishkey]

well ive googled all suggestions and it looks like i have three male and one female emperor tetras, and two killifish. havent seen those exact markings or colours on any killifish though....? but the fins and shape are spot on!

 

[Bblou]

cool try and get a couple more emperors!! theyre amazing when they shoal

 

[Spishkey]

i started off with two from my other half, then last week he came back with another two, and they kinda joined together straight away! it is really sweet to watch. perhaps i should try for more females!

I can't believe i didn't say a killifish!

Archer fish...

 

[Bblou]

yeh theyre great. my guppies shoal with my tetras to which is even cuter (unless ofcourse theyre chasing them? that only just occured to me s)

 

[BigC]

and two killifish. havent seen those exact markings or colours on any killifish though....? but the fins and shape are spot on!

They are definately 100% Epiplatys dageti without a shadow of doubt.
