I agree with @Brandy. They have many common names, include the red tailed black rasbora, blackline rasbora, and brilliant rasbora. I remember @Fish Folk used to keep them and breed them.

These are Brilliant Rasboras (Rasbora einthovenii). Below is a link to the thread of our Breeding Journal. They are a lovely fish!
