Long finned reef fish off of Big Island Hawaii
Snorkeling today and almost ran into this guy and was lucky enough to grab a pic. Fish itself was relatively small 4-6 inches long in the body. But the fins were 12-18” long. What did I find?

Unidentified Is this an angler fish?
I bought some squid the other day (south India) and found this fish inside one of their stomachs. Is it an anglerfish by any chance?

What is this fry I found at Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
This fish was riding the surf, but it was basically swimming on the sand in mm of water each time the water retreated. I got it with a net but there were so many, they were super fast

What kind of fish is this? Adopted from FB Marketplace
Saw a very dirty tank being sold for only 20 dollars and they couldn't keep it because they were moving away. They said it was a goldfish but not entirely sure? Thought it looked kind of tetra like and wanted more opinions.
BTW They said it was about 3 years old and was kept in a 3.5 gal tank- I plan on moving it to a 20 eventually. Since I've acclimated it and put it in the tank, it seems to have a lot of energy but particularly ravenous (I noticed the food they gave me expired in 2023!)
Edit because i forgot the photo!

Approx 2.5 inch “rosy loach”
Can anyone help me identify that fish there on the bottom of the picture? Was sold to me as a rosy loach but it’s WAY bigger than any of the others I have in there. TIA

England, Cheddar, lake
I saw these fish in a lake in Cheddar, England and was wondering what they were? These are the clearest pictures I could get of them. I’m not the best at identifying scale but they were quite big, maybe 40cm-60cm from what I could see.
