Thanks for the ID They are striking similar to the dorado, look at the tail. Like same. Are they cousins? I go read on Wikipedia the scientific name of the dorado does not match any of those under brycon. 2 different fish that looks alike?

Brycon



(Both picture came from google, I do not own any of these fishes in the photo)
