I can post more pics if u want to have a clear/more look/looks
 
the "no eye fish" is just that. It has no eyes. It looks like a yellow molly or a swordtale with no eyes. fish can still manage to get around with no eyes. they use their lateral lines and smell

picture #2, Fish #2 are Tiger Barbs
 
picture #3, fish #1 is a Mickey Mouse Platy
 
picture #2, fish #1 looks like a White Skirt Tetra
 
picture #1, fish #3 is an Iridescent Shark -they get BIG
 
puffcrusader was right about the chinese algae eater.

The only one i dont know is picture #2, fish #4
 
pic #2 fish #4 glo danios/glofish/glowfish, they have many names.
