Doesn't look like any tetras or danios I am familiar with.

Not 100% with the blurryness (dig photos are harder for sure), but my
guesses are:

Endlers Livebearer (dorsal and relative size)
female sailfin molly (immature?? looking at the dorsal)
Sunburst molly?
Platy? I have seen both mollys and platys with lighter colors, like
this one.

I'm assuming fresh water, standard gravel size, and standard air
tubing. The fish looks to be about an inch and a half?

Any more information?
