I think they are anchovies on the photos. Sardines have different scales no?

It’s all in the motion of how they swim! Except I can’t remember which does which right now.

Anchovies pinch their caudial fins as them swim, sardines do not. I think these are anchovies.

I’m so pleased that the Monterey Bay Aquarium has a tumblr. I particularly like this lovely yet slightly unnerving...

Anchovies are usually shorter than sardines, and I believe the anchovy can be found in freshwater.
