It's a molly of some sort.
Pond fish ID
3
Hi guys! I just got custody of my moms 300gal koi pond and I'm trying to get an ID on some of the smaller fish we have in there.

Here's what I could guess is a female or young male. They are so hard to get pictures of and it took me about half an hour to catch 5 of them

Here's the male that I could get ahold of. The males bodies are much lighter than the females and have the red tails and yellow dorsal. They all have light yellow undersides and a darker/brown top side. The biggest I could see in there was about 4 inches long. They breed like crazy! There's probably ~200 of them in there along with our Koi. My mom has someone come and catch as many as possible once or twice a year and he sells them for like $2 each. Anyone know what they are??
