* Yellow Molly (Poecilia sphenops): They come in various colors and patterns, including yellow with a black tail spot. They are known for their large, rounded bellies and can grow to around 2 inches.
* Sailfin Molly (Poecilia latipinna): These are similar to Yellow Mollies, but with a more prominent dorsal fin. They also can be yellow with a black tail spot.
* Black Skirt Tetra (Gymnocorymbus ternetzi): Though generally black, they have a distinctive "skirt" of fins that can appear yellow in some varieties. They can also have a black tail spot and grow to about 2.5 inches.
To narrow it down further, consider these questions:
* Where did you find this fish? Knowing its origin (aquarium, pond, wild) can help.
* Does the fish have any other distinct markings? (Stripes, spots, etc.)
* What shape are the fins? (Long, pointed, rounded)
* How does it behave? (Active, shy, peaceful)
A picture of the fish would be most helpful in identifying it accurately.
