ya I think they are golden shiners, Notemigonus crysoleucas. I have seen them in a walmart pond in kisseme florida with redish fins like that. The ones we have up north here in ohio don't have the red but the body shape is the same.

Yeah, the fact that they're from a pond strongly supports a golden shiner ID. I kept trying to get a good look at scales in the photos to confirm Cyprinella but that didn't really work. And the basicaudal spot is wrong. So golden it is.

I hate ID'ing fish by blurry photos with little information.

Thanks for all the input, btw.
Also, I have been recently (2-4 weeks) feeding freeze dried bloodworms and freeze dried brine shrimp, along with spirulina flakes, so that may have some impact on coloration.
