Honestly I have no idea. At first I thought it was a zebra danio or another type of danio, but the fins do not match so it couldn't be. Anyway good luck with your search because I have no idea.

ok so the pics are not great this little thing is fast, I have one pic with a blurry DP in the front, the other is with a young male mosquito fish. I would say it is less than an inch. as a reference i also put a pic of one of my Least killi's

Dwarf Livebearer aka Heterandria formosa?

Found it in Tropical Freshwater Fish from A to Z by Ulrich Schliewen. At least the picture is very similar and it's stated to be native to S.E. US.
