Odd shape but I'd say that it is some type of tetra.
 
Buenos aires tetra in really bad shape.
 
he'll heal up soon enough hes already swimming around happily and eating alot. is he supposed to be have alot of teeth? just by looking at him i can see all those teeth.
 
I'm not sure if BA's have visible teeth.
 
either deformed Buenos aires tetra or exodon.
 
his upper jaw is squarish and has a bump on each side so 2 bumps. his lower jaw is the one with the larger teeth
