Sorry if there's a more specific thread to post mystery fish. I haven't been on here in forever.

Saw this fish at petco, would anyone know what it is? It's still a baby. About an inch long

Thank you

It looks like a Golden Wonder Killifish (Aplocheilus Lineatus). They are very easy to keep, but do like to jump. The males are more green/gold in color.

Golden wonder killifish
They get between 8-10cm, can sometimes be aggressive towards smaller fish when feeding but nothing to be worried about however will eat smaller fish neon tetra sized

They are stupid hardy, stupid good at jumping, and have stupidly large mouths. The female I had got pretty big before I moved, so big I couldn't replace the suicidal male due to most stores only stocking juveniles. I thought the male was pretty. They are also the longer lasting killifish. They aren't annual.
