What fish is this?

[Rasbora98]

Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone recognizes what species of fish this is. I've tried to look it up but can't find it. It's a greyish-brown freshwater fish, and it's about 4-5 cm long. Thanks in advance!

need a picture from the side not above.

it could be a female black widow/ skirt tetra

I put the fish in this measuring cup for just a short moment to take a picture from the side, it's not the most clear but I didn't want to cause it any more stress than necessary. Hope this helps! The caudal fin especially does look like a skirt tetra now that you mention it!

yes it's a female black widow tetra (black skirt tetra is the European name for them)
